Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, April 21, 1955

Occupied with odd jobs – frames, “fussing” in the yard etc. –
Spring has adorned with bewildering rapidity – a film of green is coming over the trees, and the wild flower garden is rapidly coming into full bloom.
Worked on the “Backyards in Golden Sunlight” and it has gained in unity –
Call from Schenck one day – saying he & his wife were delighted with the little transcription –
One evening – B & I to see “The Country Girl”– a tense, and moving drama –
Visit last night (Wed.) – from Phil Elliot & Russo –
Letter today from Rosie– with a tentative list of all the pictures they want from here.
Last night we had Hank and the youngsters over for dinner – Steaks – I cooked too many, so we ate nothing but steaks and green peas – a delicious meal however.
