Thursday, 22 November, 1962, The Frances Hubbard Diaries

Thursday, 22 November, 1962, The Frances Hubbard Diaries
Thanksgiving.  Rained hard most all night.  40 degrees in am, 30 in pm. with a little snow, clearing.  LaVerne & Roberta were here for dinner.  Gerald was home.
Comment;  Hubbard Hill Memories:
Thanksgiving came with hunting season
 Lot’s of family found a reason
 To come “up home” to join in meals and song.
We gather around that old piano, 

Dad sang bass Mom sang soprano
Uncles , aunts and cousins sang along.
And the old time Christian hymns would soar and chime
With harmonies so sweet and so sublime.
Then all the men would go hunt deer

 While all the ladies helped to clear
 The table for the meal at supper time...
In the picture, Aunt Madeline, Frances, Aunt Winifred.....

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?"
