January 7, 1964
Tuesday, nice day again, but cooler, 68. I ironed nearly all day. Wrote to Doug and Roberta. Clifton and the boys finished burning the tumbleweed. We went over to Marilyn's at night and went to Sandellas (?) to look at their house. Sent 3 films in to get developed.
Comment: Ah, the days before digital photography....I remember Mom had for many years a folding, green Kodak camera similar to the one on the left, and Marilyn's first camera was a Kodak Brownie like the one on the right...Mom's must have been practically indestructible because I remember playing with it for hours on end when very young. I also remember the front part of the viewfinder on Marilyn's Brownie was partially melted from being placed too close to the stove or something. So Mom must have mailed in the film for development and probably got it back in about a week and a half or so.....Today I can take dozens of pictures and have them distributed to all my friends and family through the internet in minutes........
