April 20-26

Stay with sister Betty for a few days. We think the new baby [is like] Tom Davis. A snow storm. Winter [is] lingering in the lap of Spring. Get my summer bonnet; it is a perfect flower garden. Tom and Mat call to see me. Get home Thursday. Find brother Jim and his family here. They spend the night. Saturday we are invited to Ridgway and have such a gay time. It made me feel quite young "tripping on the light fantastic toe." Make some pleasant acquaintances among the gentlemen.
