May 6, 1965
Thursday, beautiful day, 68 high, no wind. I cleaned stove and did most of ironing etc. Wayne worked for Earl after school. Sue went to Deanna Cornell's birthday party after school.
Comment: I think Deanna is the sister of Donald and Gordon Cornell, then of Prattsville, both friends of mine in grade and high school. Donny was a great singer and I still remember him one night when he was about 10 years old singing Hank Williams's Lovesick Blues complete with all the yodels, at Tom O'Hara's gas station. He was a great favorite of Tom's also it seemed. He was also one helluva cross-country runner. I remember he told me about pretending he was a truck and running up the hills around Prattsville when he was a young child. I think that developed his seeming ability to run forever.....take a listen to Hank...... sounds just like Donny...
