Blanche went to Vasa today, so I had to amuse myself with
various things. I played with the
children, went picking flowers, chasing butterflies, and I also practiced all
by myself.
Concert at Koskeby |
The concert that evening was scheduled to start at eight
o'clock, but it was right in the haying season, and nobody came until about
8:30 or 9. We started the program at 10
o'clock. Inasmuch as Arnold didn't come,
I had to play two piano solos. Blanche
and I each had a beautiful corsage which she had gotten in Vasa. Gee! But
they were pretty. After the program we
also had to supply the dance music.
(Darn Arnold!) It was quite a bit
of fun except that the people were too bashful to dance where there were
Americans.
On the internet on a site that describes ungdomsforenings in Finland there is this explanation:
Koskeby uf:s hus från 1912 blev den gemensamma
samlingslokalen som idag är Vörå uf.
(According to Google Translation: Koskeby UF's house from 1912 became the common meeting hall
which today is Vörå uf.)
