The sun turned to rain; the snow all melted –
Very windy, the air turning colder.
To early service. Afterwards Rev. Neeb told me Mrs. Neeb had rheumatic fever –
Late P.M. – to the Koenig (James & Catherine) opening at A.I.B – a good show.
Afterwards to Quaker Bonnet for supper. Home and played Dvorak’s 4th Symph. & Dumky trio— gorgeous music. It brought back with a pang, the 1943 dreams of nature–fantasies.
