April 27, 1947

Pretty this morning but windy. rain tonight.

Clayton went to church this morning. Elizabeth didn’t go. Opal and I went over to Williams this afternoon. Holman & Ella were there. Holman & Ella brought us home. Then we went up to Elizabeth’s for awhile.

My keyboard doesn’t have a symbol for this version of an ampersand.

About my little diary project

My goal is to post entries from the diaries and journals of my ancestors, willing friends and family, myself, and found public sources like a diary my godmother found in a Kentucky resale shop. I want to organize them by writer, date, and where possible, geographic location. The reason: I want to honor and create a shared, minimally curated source of daily accounts of life from ordinary people. If you’d like to participate, contact me for guidelines.
