Dear Doris

There was a thunder shower yesterd late in the day with lots of rain accompinaing it that cloud & showers keep up during the night & it was pleasant this morning up to the middle of the day but a cloud has come up & it has settled down to rain which bids fair to last the rest of the afternoon. I have just finished my last book. I let Mrs. Ballentine have my other two & she & her two daughters have gone away so I may go down to Alices to get some more before night if it clears as its dull for me to sit here all alone Sunday with nothing to read. since the shower of last night its cold. I manage to keep comfortable with a good fire in the kitchen. this is a green summer there are very few mosquitoes none in the house. Mike Williams mowed our grass over a week ago & it has remained just as he left it over on the gourd each side of the old place. but since noon I see he has come with the team & carried it away for which I feel thankful as it was worrying me to know how to manage to clear it up.
