We are back at Flint Lake and I am staying with Grandma for the summer!
Izzy bought a brand-new shining aluminum canoe for Grandma at the next town. They loaded it in the baggage car and Grandma had tears in her eyes when she realized it was for her when they were getting it off the train. Mother had bought a second-hand canvas tent from someone at the Reserve. After work on my last day, I asked the storekeeper how much the fishnet was in the corner. I told him that I would like to take it to my grandmother and he just pulled it out and handed it to me, saying that it had been taking up space in the store for a long time anyway. I couldn’t believe it! I got it free for Grandma! I am looking forward to camping and fishing with Grandma all summer. For now, the tent is set up outside Grandma’s cabin where Izzy, Mother, Lyndon and Eliza have moved in to stay for the week.
This is my last entry. I left my last sewn-seamed pages on top of Grandma’s pillow.
