Feb 14, 1928 Washington St as I came out from the Dept about 5 Pm. The rain which had been falling heavily, had just ceased and the sun was shining below dark weed clouds. With such a quantity of water on all the branches it was running down on the branches, and they seemed all covered with water. The low hills bright now in there made their look exactly as if coated with a thin film of ice, as was very beautiful. Feb 19. Sunday. Went up to K. in the late afternoon. Took a couple of Dromognetta fucens and several spring frogs from the bottom of springs went to Scotts and had supper with them. Met Mrs Johnson an English lady who was staying with them a day or two. Took the 7:30 car home from Jackson.
