(In another posting about Dwight's wedding, I mentioned that she slept all the way home. I was so excited, I couldn't figure out how she could do that.) And, Dwight, I figured that the (D) initial behind two of the gas purchases meant that you had paid for those fill-ups.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14728351230605312730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4114307744147144762.post-13379219010176292212010-01-06T09:06:14.621-07:002010-01-06T09:06:14.621-07:00Mother's travel logs were often found in littl...Mother's travel logs were often found in little notebooks. I don't remember going even to Riverton without her noting the mileage, the cost of gas, etc. She made little money cover an amazing amount of expenses. I suspect it was her meticulous tracking that helped in that area. What a treasure.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06652616779595499610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4114307744147144762.post-15219501588330504222010-01-06T07:41:15.097-07:002010-01-06T07:41:15.097-07:00I'm speechless just looking at these amounts. ...I'm speechless just looking at these amounts. I knew that it was a great sacrifice for Mom to come to the wedding. I also knew that Dad could never leave home because of the cows so he didn't make it to my wedding or my graduation.

Why was Provo on the itinery? What was the "nonesense"? And look how cheap gas was. <br /><br />These notes are a delightful gem. Mother was pretty gutsy to go trotting off without Dad, especially at the onset of winter. I do not remember one minute of hesitation on her part.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288597968563641842noreply@blogger.com
