Very nice day today. Stopped at Flo's for coffee after took kids to school. Didn't get home till about 10:30. In afternoon, Marg & I & kids went out riding in country to find weeds. I wanted milk pods to make nut cups. We found a tremendous cat-tail place too late. Go to Plant 2 corner - turn east - go down first lane - at intersection turn east & keep going east - between railroad tracks by Knute Troen Fire #715 & John Brock Fire #596 & closed schoolhouse - road wound around & came out by Amboy Grange. We stopped at Anderson's & got some pine cones & acorns. Home about 4. Tonite it rained. Ron stayed home & I subbed in Pat Umbargers bridge club.
