Weather fine and warm
I went to aslo [a show?] with A. E. P. Pelsen




I'd like to know what the show was! What kind of show!
ReplyDeleteGreat question and one that I've wondered about myself. I would imagine that there wasn't much at all 100 years ago for entertainment in Edmonton...not like today considering what Edmonton has become. Maybe he'll give us a clue in the upcoming days! He died when I was 2 years old, so I never had a chance to get to know him. It's one of the reasons I encourage the people who attend my classes to get out and interview the older generation....
ReplyDeletemy grandpa wrote those words. WOW!!!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had done more of that myself when I had the chance!
