(1965 June 23, "Second Day of Summer"
My dear hirsute one, What has possessed you to so admire the porcupine? Here I have been hoping for a nice snap of your & M & the girls and now you are in this phase. Let's hope it won't last. What are you doing it for? Can't be pretty or comfortable. Oh well, one problem after the other.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
