Weather kinda funny this AM, but has cleared up now. Eggs .46
Sent E 2 aprons today. Had big letter from her.
Do you know who G is? I wonder if that is her busband?
ReplyDeleteYes, that's correct; G is her husband.
ReplyDeleteSoon I will be posting a summary of details that has been written so far...sort of a 'connect the dots' of who people are that she writes about and what all has happened on the farm.
Thank you so much for being a reader! :)
