February 6, 1981 Aunt Estelle wrote

Friday 1981  Fair got to 40 degrees.    I went for the milk & eggs for the first time I have been out I over a week.  We took a bath, hope we don't take fresh cold.  Roy, Radious, Walter, Lizzie & Maudie Ellen were in.  


Footnote:  Roy Shuler is her brother-in-law who lives in  Big Stone Gap.  He has a farm near her house in Deep Springs.  He has cows on the farm and was probably down there every day to feed them.  Radious & Walter are neighbors as are Lizzie and Maudie Ellen . 


I am back home and have a new furnace.  It has been running for over two hours and the house is still very cold.  Just hope it will start to warm up soon as I am all wrapped up and still have cold hands and nose.  Our winter has just been the worst and it ain't over yet = supposed to be 4 degrees tonight and Friday night.  The ground has 6 " of snow and ice and it is so frozen that I don't even make a foot print on it when I walk on it from the car.   And it is supposed to snow again.  When will spring be here?   We are all over it!!!
