Laura is 51

This is one of the first places Laura visited. We were at our neighbors V. A. and Duvle Watkins. Larry always made friends with older folks. Laura’s about a week or two old. I recall that double knit quilt Duvle had. It was made with tiny squares. Astrid is fixing taco salad for lunch. We’ll have cheese cake and fried pies for dessert. I bought Laura a quart of local honey for her birthday and money for a fall outfit.

I made a boy blanket and hat from the scraps of Sig’s poncho. Was short on the blue and filled in with another blue. Ruined the blanket for me but I wasn’t buying another skein.
