(1966 May 2)
Wonder if May Day was a big time at your house and if Miryam and girls spent hours making beautiful May Baskets the way we used to. Now several bake cup cakes in papers and decorate and put a colored pipe cleaner for handle as flowers are so late blooming, but thot is not the Real Thing. I didn't even get one.
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.
