Warm weather at last.
Today there are still a few hepaticas in bloom – (March 23 to May 5 – seven weeks of blooming!).
Working on the drawings. I thank God to have this kind of work to do at this time.
Evening – we went to the Aero Drive in to see “Ma & Pa Kettle on Vacation” (Percy Kilbride & Marjorie Main) we thoroughly enjoyed the movie (altho the drive-in light & screen are hard on the eyes) – Pure farce and slap-stick – we had several belly-laughs out of it.
