February 5, 1963
Mostly sunny 30. David, Clifton and I went to Cobleskill to Mothers for dinner. The ice was nearly gone from roads. David's car had a broken spring. I had a bad cold in my head.
Comment: I think David broke the spring in his car by loading a big piece of concrete guard-rail post into the trunk to help him get up the hills when it was so icy the last couple of days. I remember seeing the car with the guard rail in the trunk and it was squatting very low in the back. Here is a picture of my mother's mother, Bessie Laraway Barber Van Tassell as a young woman. She is on the right. Not sure why they are standing in what appears to be a hay-field.
