1897
38 miles & today
dusk on Windsor Beach Bluff. How the dew fell and the lake grew dark. Then it was time for the moon to rise and we started off up the long - hill - to find it's pleasant fall at the top - and such a lovely ride home. The sky gorgeous with the old moon. The road quite visible but shadows all about and mystery behind and before. Con saying nice things beside me - and dear Diana spinning along beneath. It was too soon to leave the fragrance and the moonlit blossoms when we reached the city. We walked across the bridge to see the pretty falls by moonlight (I took their pictures by sunlight this morning) and came up State St. way - Con dusting us off just before we reached civilization. It was after ten when we got home and I got a kitchen lunch and went to bed at eleven, to sleep like a dog. May 17. Monday. Helen Davis was in today & said Charlotte wanted to know when I was coming over. So tonight I got Mary & went and Ned came too - on the car with us. We went through the house and christened Helen's wheel with grape juice (!) and so on, and all came home together. It seemed queer to be riding in the street cars again.
