May 11, 1963 The Frances Hubbard Diaries

May 11, 1963
Saturday, cloudy, foggy, cold,  38 hi.  I baked and made slipcovers for chair and fixed a dress. David was home at noon.  Wayne got tires on the truck had it greased etc. and cleaned the chicken house in the afternoon.

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?"
