HB Journal for Jun 10, 1940

We begin another week but not the usual washday Monday. Last night's rain left mud everywhere and the world soaked.

Jane went to Lancaster and I to work again. It was a wet Monday. That means that farmers from far and near took time off to visit us a little.

After supper H.B. and I were both back at our desks on the job.

Having so far neglected current events in the political world, I sidestep my former habit and record that Italy declared war on England and France on the side of Germany.
