Dora:
Hung up the clothes early. Sewed. Washed our heads.
Studied camera.
Agent stopped to stay all night. (written in pen)
C.H. Berglund (written in pencil)
Note: In the back of Dora's journal she has saved several calling cards. Some of them are female names, but most of them are male names. I wondered as I first looked through these, who these men were. Love interests? Someone she met on one of her trips? C.H. Berglund's card is in the back of Dora's journal. It's text reads:
Chicago Portrait Company
(Incorporated)
Capital Stock One-Half Million
509-511-513-515-517 So. Wabash Avenue
C.H. Berglund Chicago.
There is another professional calling card from a Henry T Price of the McIntosh Stereopticon Company. This address reads 30 East Randolf Street Chicago.
That leaves two other cards that I like to speculate may be love interests, but probably weren't. Walter A. Murdoch from Flint, Michigan and a mysterious Verne Cole (Verne's card is beautifully scripted and looks achingly romantic-Walter seems more steady and industrious).
Who knows, though? She 'washed her head' in preparation for Mr. Berglund, something she hasn't mentioned doing ALL YEAR.... Maybe she was just like any girl, hoping to stumble across Mr Right at any place or time.

Cayla:
Took Maurice to pre-school (Tarek and I went early for parent-teacher conferences) and then ran some errands with Ada. Came back home and visited with Eva and Yuji a bit before going back and picking Maurice up from pre-school.
Eva and Yuji left after lunch.
I ran on the treadmill after the kids went to bed.
