A wild windy day after the stormy night – Day dawns clear & cold with a stiff wind - soon come windy day clouds in first white, later with cold blue bases & booming white tops –
To Bentley’s on picnic – wind waves in hay, - irresistible – wind shattered trees becoming black against the blue & white sky -
The wind cleared my mind up –
In the evening at the Picture show, two brilliant [Red Orange] spots appeared suddenly on the black wall of the theatre - it was the late sun! and it seemed a thing remote from this world –
Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, July 5, 1915
