April 25
Still cloudy and rainy. Mowed front yard. Did mornings work. Cleaned off chicken roosts. Worked on my rug. Dreamed about Rena last nite. Mable and her drove in about 1 o'clock. We were all surprised. Hadn't seen her since July 2, 1931. We three went fishing after a long conversation. Caught 6 little fellows. I can hardly realize that she was here, seems like a dream. A very hard rain tonight.
