Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, September 30, 1949

A cold, cloudless day—strong S. W. wind—a glorious day.  Working on frames.

(Letter from C. she is homesick).

A walk across the backyards to East Ave searching for Pal.—windblown asters by the great willow.)

P.M. To Loblaws (in preparation for M.A.’s visit Sunday).

Charles E. Burchfield, Journals, September 30, 1949

[C stands for daughter Catherine who studied at the Art Institute of Buffalo until 1947, when she went to the Kansas City Art Institute in Missouri. Pal was his much beloved Springer Spaniel. Loblaws was a grocery store and M.A. was his first-born daughter, Mary Alice.]
