Saturday August 17, 1974
It has been a hot and tiring day for me. Sometimes I feel as if I lived in a dream world. It’s hard for me to get about & do all the things I desire doing. We were all sent to bottle beets, and before we could get started - Erma Ruth, Aunt Stella, Evan’s daughter called, so we were off to meet her at Orin & Odessa’s place. We had a fine visit, then David, Orin’s youngest son offered us a ride with him to show Erma to the “This is the Place “ monument. There we parted, & then returned with David to Orins. They had luscious watermellon all prepared for us. It tasted so good to a diabetic gal who needed food. (David has just returned form a mission to West Germany.) He came on home with us and then he & Les went after the milk. He came back, and stayed for dinner. He seemed so thrilled with the Bear picture “Early Morning Fishermen”, Which I gave to him if he would pay for the canvas and put his own frame on it. It would be as a wedding gift to him. While we were at Widsoe we saw Audrie Ford & Devon. We were so sad to see her so ill. She has cancer of the brain & lungs. - - She said she’d lost all her hair

It never rains, but when it pours they say. Ariel and Les with their children went camping to Flaming Gorge. While their Leonard caught his ring finger (because of a ring) and pulled all the flesh away. They hurried home and took him to the hospital where they are trying to graft skin & make him a new finger.
Well, we’ve obligated our future monies in a new Tioga motor home. We traded our little truck and 15 ½ ’ trailer for $2100. On it. We did enter into an agreement with “Intermountain Sports,” and Larry Bate, sales manager, to rent the unit to help pay it off. It has been insured, - (to be payed for in full, Should Dad die) and will take us 7 years to pay out if we don’t rent it. We took possession of it on 8 Aug 1974, at 6pm: at 9:30 we were on our way to the Widsoe reunion (held Aug. 10) Bryce Canyon and Points South Claire & Larry and five Children went with us. We had a wonderful time.
(At this point our business agreement is only oral, but Mr. Bate has promised a writted statement when he returns from his vacation)
Les will work the 18 & 19 of Aug, Then he will retire on Sept 1. At present schedule.

Everyone is sleeping. Mike is out to spend a couple of nights with us. He & Les are going to pick peas in the morning, before Les takes the water. We had a cookout in Claire’s back yard to celebrate. Every thing was so tasty.
Marie is in Idaho with her parents again. I do not know when she will return? Norman has been having difficulty with a tenant. *I wonder if these same old worries and fears will ever resolve themselves? It’s midnight and I believe the poping of fireworks has finally stopped.
It has been a very busy week for us. Two weeks ago tomorrow night Ervin & Julia had a wedding anniversary dinner at the Red Flame in Bountiful, and all of the family on each side living here and around salt Lake attended. The dinners were about $10.00 each, & were very tasty. After spending the following week with Shirley. (their daughter) & John Pohlsanderup near Vernal, they returned to Salt Lake. They spent Saturday & Sunday night with us. They pushed their little tent camper under the car port & slept in it. We fixed a lovely dinner Saturday evening, and Orin & Odessa dropped in and had dinner with us. Jusy, Julia’s & Elvin’s daughter was with them, we all went down to Provo to visit Sarah and her family. Ray & Mary, Ted and his wife, and David and his wife were all there to see us. David is a very cute boy, as is his wife a cute woman. They were all so sweet to us. Sarah had a heart attack shortly after Les had his. She seems to be doing well.
We were back to see the doctor yesterday. After the contract at KCC is settled, the doctor (Reese) wants Les to go to the hospital for some tests. One of them is called a Cardiac Angiogram where dyes are sent through the veins to find out if they are filled with calcium & Cholesterol making him a good candidate for another heart attack. Elvin & Julia took us out to dinner on the way down to Provo. (Lesh?) , Clell & Anna dropped in today, They want us to go see the Ute Rangers if they are still showing tomorrow night.
About three weeks ago, Brad walked from his house to ours on a scout assignment. That evening we took him with us to the zoo. Les was pretty tired after that, and rested a lot the next day.
This past week Ariel has had to go to the doctor. He has had such pain, first in his stomach going up to his shoulders in the back, and then up the sides of his neck. The doctor said the tests they took didn’t find the exact trouble, but it was either ulcers - bilateral hernia, or gallstones, or heart. They have placed him on a strict ulcer diet, and he seems to feel better. We stopped at his house for a few minutes on our way home from the doctors. He was at work, but we did see Ilene & kids.

It’s a month since Mike B. had his hernia operation. He was operated on the 19 of April at Cottonwood Hospital. He did exceptionally well and was back to school in a week.
Well, we are not having paint class during the summer at Hillcrest, & I’m sort of glad. We may have a class here at home with a special few, and the understanding I can leave anytime I wish to go with Les. This was hoped for by Della and Claudia Reynolds. I hope it will be worth the time.
Les has not found out anymore about going back to work. He is still with Dr. Reese and we are still having a bad time collecting the insurance money from Travelers. They miss a week or two, then send it all at one time. World insurance have been taking care of our car payment, & without argument.
The MIA, called off their art exhibit, and will stage it the second week in June. Claire, Larry and family came down and helped cook dinner. She brought half the dinner & I finished the other. We surely had a nice one, & then we went to Sacrament Meeting (The Primary Night) after which, we went up to Ariel’s house for a few minutes. Now we are watching tv at home.
At the Hillcrest paint class, one of the girls, Rue Ann, said someone told her mother, that if she ever took an art class -”To take it from Mrs. Clawson - she’s great!”
