Mr. H was on the hill this A.M. I did not see him.
The bass in the pool will take food from my hand now by coming half way out of the water for it.
I stopped in for a few minutes to see Pick and the kids on my way home from work.
I took a bath and dressed up, and Tillie came along with Barby Palavanchi and gave us a ride over to the Memorial Building to see the high school graduation. Barby graduated tonight. I gave her $5.00 for a present.
There were more people in the hall tonight than I ever saw there at one time before.
Thel woke me up at 1:30 A.M. this morning because there was a fire at the Beach Club. I got up but it seemed to be all out.
On my way to work this morning I rode my wheel down to look at the fire damage. It was a minor fire, a short in the wiring. Every little of the woodwork burned.


A quick search showed that $5 in 1949 would be $65.48 today. That’s a nice gift when you put it in perspective.
