SEPTEMBER 5 
SATURDAY

Fair.  We found the Bunny after a long search.  Mother saw him hop out of pantry + I caught him there.  Whew!  I went to Clarendon with Bobby in the morning on our bikes.  I got school supplies, 3 candles for 10¢ [[strikethrough]] etc. [[/strikethrough]], an ice cream, etc. I had $7.28 - $7.18 now.  Then we rode home, I stopped at Dolores's. She will come over in the afternoon. She did. We made necklaces. (Bobby - yellow, me - pink, Dolores - blue - all candles not all the way through color). Then she left. In the evening I packed (we leave for beach tomorrow for a week at a cabin!!) + went to her house at 6:00 + got home at 8:00. Rode around (took turns, etc.

SEPTEMBER 6
SUNDAY

Fair. In the morning we packed. (took cat, radio, rabbit, etc.), and left for our cabin at Plum Point. We went down the beach + swam (breakers but not cold - no live sea-nettles, only 2 or 3 dead ones. Then we walked back (I made two clay boxes - carved with knife.)1 broke) Then we waited around til 6:00 + the people moved out of our cabin + we moved in - 2 bedrooms - I have one with dresser. We ate & listened to radio + went to bed. I am thin - need rest - I am going to stay home the next few days + rest - we go back next Sunday.  Snooks (rabbit) + Paddypaws (cat)are O.K.
