(1967 October 16)
Daddy is wasting his life fighting in the courts over a heifer today. One guy lost it, one guy found it and kept it - etc. etc. Yesterday it was 4 trials. Monday no noon hour other than eat and off to hospital to telephone-radio lecture to lawyers in area. All trials in PM. Oof!

Almost trivia
(1967 July 16)
Lots of little things going on around here of interest to us but almost too trivial to mention - the gopher that climbed way to the top of the apple tree; the brown thrasher family; the turtle the newsboy had in his money bag when he was collecting one morning; the new type sermons Fr. Stolpman is giving; my tooth that broke off with a crown in the offing - are all samples. It is the same with you, no doubt.

Mittens in July
(1967 July 16)
What weather do you have [in Kansas]? Hot summers? I wonder what the winters are. I have a spell on me for knitting mittens now, and if any of you will be needing mittens this winter, please draw around your hand, label with name, and forward together with color preferences.

New nuisance
1967 July 16)
The pantie factory below us has moved to bigger quarters, and I hear the City is going to use it for High School Recreation, Dances, etc. Hire a Caretaker. We are enjoying the Quiet while we may.

Summer of love
(1997 July 16)
I hear you have been to California and had yourselves quite a time! It made us tired just to read it, and we're glad you were the ones who had lived thru it and not us. Stamina must be the watchword. Oh yes - the Hippies and the Chippies - we hear about them in our remote village also. I'm sure you must have seen a lot of lovely things also.

Obedient dog
(1967 May 3)
May Day MM went down by river bank and picked big bouquet violets. Dee <5> was to go also but for some reason would only frisk back and forth on bank by our clothes line. Tho he has gone down alone by river and had to be called back. [Probably understood that he was never to go down to the river]

Beaumont Ave.
Hear you are thinking of buying a house. Arguments for and against. Big consideration is money and depreciation and upkeep. LL says it's a luxury. The first one we bought was cute but too small. When Daddy found he couldn't keep his stamps in your room any longer, I think it was a disappointment. Our bedroom was also a sad place, as the rain burst in on the closet shelf and wet the albums one spring. Think hard about your needs and what you can afford for upkeep.
