January 7, 1981 Aunt Estelle wrote

Wed. 1981  3 to 4 inches of snow.  We had Wendi.  I made my red skirt then sewed on my quilt pieces.  Jennings was in.  Janice came for Wendi.  We couldn't get our car out of drive way of course.  We didn't even consider  prayer meeting tonite. 


Footnote:  Wendi is her granddaughter and I am guessing the school was closed because of the snow.  Jennings is her brother who lives close by.  Janice is her daughter and Wendi's mother.  They live about 9 miles away.  The weather in 1981 sounds about like it is today.  snow and very cold.    I have a quote that I embroider on the doll body that says "Snow and adolescence are the two things that will disappear if you  wait long enough".      So you know that in about 6 months we will be looking for a cool spot under the shade tree.
