Over at the Robin Siegismund Farm, not much going on. Petey comes over every day to see Robin for a treat, Speck and Belle don’t like to share treats. Mabel’s doing things with apples, Robin is busy knitting little people stuff. Speck and Belle had fun chasing creatures when Daniel mowed close to the yard.

John Snethen spent a quite week with his bus route and Julia in Knob Noster with Shella, David and Theo Vandiver. Julia went up on Monday fighting the Labor Day traffic and came back Thursday evening with still a lot of traffic. Julia and Theo had a little accident on Monday night after Theo’s bath. Julia was walking Theo into the bedroom so Shella could dress him for bed and Julia tripped on a rug, Julia and Theo met heads, but Theo wasn’t hurt but Julia had a knot on her head and flipped over on her back. Theo thought Julia was playing a game and laugh. Theo likes being outside and taking walks, which kept Julia very active. Julia kept appointment when she returned home getting her hair done and visiting the doctor but not getting a good report.
