Still warmer and sure seems like spring. Did the usual work, read papers. Deloris Machino, won the spelling contest in this County. (Our neighbor girl). I cleaned and scrubbed the entire front porch today. A real job. Flies flying around. Tree buds are swelling. Chicks sure enjoyed sunshine today. 23 eggs.
