The text seems to be related to travel details or itinerary, referencing cities such as Des Moines, Grand Rapids, Boston, and mentioning Ames, Iowa. The right page features a vibrant and energetic drawing with dominant colors of red and blue. The drawing is expressive, possibly abstract, with what appears to be a depiction of a face or figure in the center. Surrounding lines and shapes are interwoven in a dynamic and somewhat chaotic manner.

There is a date marked on the bottom-left of the left page, written as "IV-8-79," which may indicate that this entry or drawing was created on April 8, 1979.
