Tuesday March 6th 1917 We were home all day. I worked on my spread and Mrs Falk began one like it. Read some in evening. Wednesday March 7th 1917 We both went down town with The Falks. I called at Mrs Bunns and Will & I were at Loves and Abbotts. We got our dinner at The Greeks and rode part way out in the Daytona [Bas?] and walked the rest of the way. I got our supper the others did not come till bed-time. Thursday March 8th 1917 I was home all day. It was quite warm. Mrs Falk had company. I had a letter from Ida & Hattie. I wrote both of them in the evening. We will stop at Ida's. Friday March 9th 1917 I was busy most of the forenoon and after dinner packed the trunk. It was two years yesterday since I got back from Florida before. Mrs Falk and I visited till supper time. We all went down town in the evening to a picture show.
