Entry from Journal #1, August 21, 1930

I was to the fair to-day. It was nice in every way. I sure like the Geological displays, also the Mt’s map of Montana. I could look and look then think, study and want to figure out the formation of the strata, designs and [different] minerals the wonderful outer surface contains in its unseen depths. My graduation “Essay” was on Geology. Oh! I feel my life handicapped and short for what I want to see and know.
