even though I'm sure it's put on for the tourists, which I never seem to see. [How its changed!) August 30,1960 I planted a butterfly bush and a mahonia today. We had a nic shower this afternoon; how good it sounded and smelled. Spent the after noon with sweet, old Olive Rush. I went over to see her and her charmin, old adobe and beautiful gardens on Canyon Road. [Now that is th Friends Meeting <strong>House</strong>.] She has lived there for forty years and plantel all the big trees herself. I love her paintings. They have a fairy story quali like elves, fairies, and pixies--charming and lovely. I came home wi flowers, apples, and plants. [Many of my plants are starters from he. All my Castilian roses and my hen-and-chickens, my Li~v of the Val ley. The crab apple tree in the patio was just a little tiny twig when planted it. That was from her garden too.] September 1, 1960 Somehow three weeks have gone by since Boris left. I don't kno how; it's so lonely and empty and pointless. Locked in my adobe walls, feel like the princess locked in her tower waiting for the knight on a whi horse to rescue her. Watched the "flfst-of-the-month parade" up and down Alto Strl Even the taxis were busy tearing up and down. Women loaded down wi bags and boxes, smoking tailor -mades. A day for celebration and a nigh! too, I'm sure. Tomorrow night I'm taking Olive to see the burning 0 Zozobra and the melodrama. It's Fiesta and I suppose I should see som of it, although I don't look forward to it without Boris. No word from for over a week. How much longer will it be? TO BE CONTINUED 32
