[[underline]]June 27 [[strikethrough]]& 28[[/strikethrough]][[/underline]] - Spent most of the day writing, took some photographs, and got part of our camp outfit.

[[underline]]June 28[[/underline]] - Loaded up & started for Kerrville, followed up the valley on north side of Guadalupe R. among the farms Good road, but dusty & the country very dry. All kinds of crops suffering, but wheat & oats have been cut & were fairly good crops. The corn will yield part of a crop & if rain comes there is still hope for the cotton.

Stopped at Kerrville & got our supply of grub & what camp things we had not previously been able to get then followed up the Guadalupe River 3 miles & camped at the ranch of a Mr. Moore. The Guadalupe River is here very low, with rock bottom & Cypress trees scattered along ^[[the]] shores.-

A heavy thunder shower in evening came just to[[strikethrough]]o[[/strikethrough]] us, raining a few big drops, but raining hard east of us. Another distant storm in the west may have covered some of the country we are going into.
