Shower of Rain, 8 A.M. Cool and cloudy with passing Showers to sprinkle the Dust and cool the Atmosphere after it was washed and purified by the moisture. I spent some time among the flowers, gathering some and removing Old Stocks from the Yard. This moisture will help vegetation and freshen the flowers.
Grasshoppers are damaging stuff some. Scripture read Matt 11 and John 6:16-21. Mary did the housework and went to the Store. Frank is at home with me first time in a long while. This dampness makes my joints ache worse, but my breathing is better. Have my Room cleaned and dusted.
Reading and resting shall occupy my mind and body most of the day. The last of my Watermelons grown among the flowers was cut today. It was of an excellent grade, good color, good taste, crisp and sweet. A nice heavy shower come about 1 P.M. then the Sun shone out. At night all 4 of family motored to Clinton for 2 hours. Mary took me to the Ritz Theater to see a Good Picture by good Actors. The night was pleasant and cool after the Showers of Afternoon, but very dark. Traffic is heavy, but Safety Driving is carried out better than in the Past. There are not many Road Hogs anymore.
