I finally found a box to fit your "dirty clothes" (now clean) & hope to get it mailed tomorrow. Dale is on vacation so he should be able to take me to the post office.
Paul you remember Jacque Welsh - her oldest daughter is spending her senior year of college in Kyoto, Japan & will graduate next spring from U. of Penn. She is a smart gal. Saw Jacque at the store tonite & she hopes to hear soon that she arrived safely. She spent 3 days with Janelle & family in Calif. & they saw her off.
Called Ruth last nite. She is doing fine & leaves on Fri. for Seattle & a visit with Joyce & family. Lila walks with a walker. Ruth was surprised to see their lawn wasn't cut & in spite of the warm weather Charles never got their window air conditioner in. We were never told but in May Stella fell & broke her hip & was operated on. She can't live alone & is in the care unit of the Augustana Home in Mpls. I'm pretty sure David moved to Mpls & a job there. Then I called Gen. They had been over to Edith's as Edith & Ed's cousin from Sweden were visiting & staying with Edith. Things are fine with them. John is still looking at houses but hasn't bee3n successful so far.
We've been watching a program on ABC entitled "Explosion" showing the exploding of buildings to make way for new buildings. Also bombings in movies & police having to deal with bombs placed by "crazies". Very interesting.
Dale is working on his car - has the door completed on the driver's side. It looks so good. Next will be to change the wheels on the other side; the door, etc. Sam m ight buy his present "winter car".
Just want to let you know the pkg is on the way.
We miss having the boys around. We enjoyed having them here so much.
P.S. I ordered a Bose radio today. Should come in a week.
Until July 2010, when her eyesight deteriorated, my mother wrote 1000s of chatty letters during her lifetime - to her parents, in-laws, sisters, children, friends. Tho she started to write to me on a regular basis in Sept '68 when I began my freshman year at SUNY-Buffalo, it wasn't until 10 years later that I decided to hold onto them. (Very inconsistently at first, to which the big gaps between dates attest.) These are the letters transcribed, annotated, and otherwise highlighted here.
