NOTES
 
Today has been mostly sunny with a high temperature of 73 degrees. Low temperature this morning was 57 degrees. Last evening shortly after 10:30 p.m. thunderstorms rolled into our area and lasted until well after midnight. We received over an inch of rain in McAlester which was very welcome. I had lunch with Charley and went to the post office. I took a nap in early afternoon. My daughter, June, arrived shortly after 5:00 p.m. to spend a few days with me. She and husband, Keith, live in Yukon, Oklahoma, at present but will be moving to Hawaii in June of this year. I was sitting in the yard with the cats when she arrived.
 
The cats are fine. Little Girl on the couch, Rascal on the desk near me and the others around somewhere.
 
At 9:50 p.m. skies are fair with a temperature of 63 degrees. I will see you next time.
 
In Christian Love, Everett.
