Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, October 8, 1949

P.M. a small water color based on the 1933 view of Goehle’s, which I reconstructed last year. I improved on the composition; and although it was a struggle, at the end, it seemed like a good sketch. 

Evening – B & I to Seneca to see “Illegal Entry” Afterwards drive to Hall Rd, park & then for walk down the road. A beautiful spot, quiet, and far away (no street lights) – Delicate graceful elms. A few Katydids, and of course, crickets.

Before bedtime, take Pal out to back yard. Tonight the poplar-enclosed area to the east, flooded with moonlight seemed like a vast hall or auditorium. –
