Monday, mostly sunny, -5 to 15 windy. I washed, kids went back to school. David went to Grand Gorge bank to borrow $175 for motor for his car. He worked on it in the afternoon. He went to Roxbury at night. Had letter from Marilyn and Dougie.
Comment: Those were the days when the banker knew you and your family and the loan was approved on the spot. When I got my student loans from the Middleburg bank, the loan officer was also the manager and typed up (on a typewriter) the notes and the checks immediately and also gave me a handwritten payment book. David probably had to first get the old engine out of the car and probably did it in the haymow where he could have rigged up a block and tackle to lift the engine out and also lower the new one in. Doug must be in the throes of Navy boot camp and probably not having a lot of fun...and it's still pretty cold, windy and about zero, that's not a lot of fun either....
