Mon Sept 11 Hot and clear and sunshiny.
Lew Mary and Aggie and I suppose Eva Cushion
and Elmer started for the hills this morning
via Black Mountain. They expect to be gone
about a week. Frank Kib and I repaired
the fence across the ditch a couple of places
this forenoon and this afternoon Frank took
the cream over and done some other errands.
Kib and I fixed the fence to keep the critters
from going over on to Mr Terrys place.

Tues Sept 12 Cliar [Clear] hot and dry.
Frank helped Mary wash in the forenoon
and in the afternoon cleaned up the guns and
prepared for Indians or game. Kib and I fixed
a little more fence on the Windy hill
place and then finished cleaning out
the strawberry patch and got it pretty
well irrigated but I think I will let it
run for a day or two longer.

Wed Sept 13 Clear and pretty hot in
the middle of the day. Frank and Kib went
in quest of rabbits and got a couple for dinner.
This afternoon we done sundry chores and
the boys cut up some corn too. I tinkered
at the machine some and looked after the
water some. Meda went over to town
so as to take the train for Boulder in
the morning to resume her duties
in the school room.
