January 9, 1963 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

January 9, 1963
Wed Cloudy in A.M. 35 with sunshine in am,  a little sunshine in the afternoon.  Sue was home because of a tooth she had out,  I cut out her blue dress and worked on it.  Clifton and boys cut apple trees at the foot of the hill below the road.  Grandpa (Elmer Hubbard) and Louise left for Florida.   I talked to her before they went.  Wrote a letter to Marilyn,  one to Ella Mae Roth.   Sent Dean’s (Dean Harris, Marilyn's son) birthday card and $1.00.  Sent Roberta a birthday card too.  Paul Rickenburg came to look at cattle, but wouldn’t give what we wanted for them.
Comment:  Paul Rickenburg was "The Calf Man" as posted here:   A quite rough take "talking blues" style.

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
