Scope and content

This diary, kept when PLA was shut down, mentions visiting the dentist a great deal, his parents begin to go into town on their own, and rarely notes that they do anything together, he takes up golf, and now works at the Arm Post doing some kind of construction. One day the scaffolding he’s standing on break and he falls 17 feet. He is confined to bed rest for the next two days and is laid off when he returns to work. He puts his property up for sale, but makes no further mention where he works after. The front of the diary includes a streetcar schedule with a pressed dandelion.
