Still having a pleasant time at this town, and continue our
walks through the country. Berries and cherries are beginning to ripen. Allowed
to help ourselves with all we can eat, as we do much work for the farmers,
helping at various kinds of work. Stores are opening up in town, as are also
all the churches. Buildings are in bad condition, the result of the four years
of the war.
