1955: "We all are back in town this morning. Annie Heip was with us for 3 days. Mother gets a permanent wave this afternoon. Had a severe electrical storm, had been thundering heavily since noon but did not begin to rain until 2 P.M. and then it came down in buckets. Took Donald and family to Columbus Club for dinner and then to the Oshkosh Theatre to see Davy Crockett with Fess Parker and Buddy Ebsen and Hansel and Gretel Fairyland Color by Walt Disney."
