Saw Ellen Halverson at Monona Lake, played with ball, it went in lake-I waded in after it. Aura went to sleep on the couch. I roused her and helped her upstairs. While she was undressing, she opened her eye wide and said "how'd I get upstairs?' Then, after while she aske me "Do you know why I went to sleep?" I told her probably because she'd been at the Lake and was tired. She answered "Because I was sleepy".
