Received your letter & info, Paul.  Dad took it to the paper & a small item ensued.   A picture would have been nice -- evidentally they couldn't use the one in the info.

Signe & Geo. called Thurs nite to tell us a cousin -in-law died.  Robert Holmberg's wife.  He died last Fall - was 93 & she was 88.  She was Eva's sister-in-law.  Someone likes S & G's house but nothing definite yet.  The retirement house is still waiting.  2 other couples are in the same fix - wanting to move to the retirement center.

Last nite the 6 of us went out to dinner (family).  Mineral Well has reopened & is doing well, served good food & is getting a good crowd.  We all enjoyed ourselves.  Dad & Dale had steaks & enjoyed them.  Lar had shish-kabobs & said they were really good.

Barb & I have been checking the sales & we found 2 cute outfits for the boys.  We'll send them for a Valentine - will send it to the library.

I'm getting over a cold. Didn't go to church last Sun (5th) nor to L.C.W. Mon. nite.  Feel fine now.

Lots of excitement in the Buffalo area & it spills over to surrounding areas.  We're rooting for Buffalo, but not Dale who says people weren't for them when they were losing so why now.  He's a Steeler fan only.  He roots for Denver.  Boo! Boo!  Buffalo all the way.

I received a colored folder from the Mets with a large picture of Jeff Torborg & a smaller inset of Bonilla in the corner.  Inside more pictures of Eddie Murray, HoJo, Doc Gooden, .Vince Coleman.  Plus their schedule & info on tickets.  It's nice!!!!  A keepsake.

Signe & Geo. also said Charles' eyesight is very bad & can hardly see.  Might need an operation.

Still no snow to speak of but cold weather is forecast to come Tues. aft.  We've had very mild weather for Jan.

Barb had her hair colored this past week & liked the results.  Looks nice.

Dear Andy,

Did you see Sid pitch last Fri. nite.  It was on T.V.  He did real good for 6 innings & the Mets beat L.A. & Strawberry.

I thought you might like the clown, with a butterfly on his nose, that is on this note paper.  Isn't he funny looking.

Tell your Daddy we are real proud of him for being chosen Wi. librarian of the year.  You have great parents & we love you all.

We are glad you will be visiting us.  We haven't seen Eddie yet and we are anxious to see him & you, Andy, so we can give you big hugs.

Bet you are looking forward to riding on the Airplane and the trip to Florida and Disney World.  You'll have fun.

I'm sending you a dollar so you can buy some M&M's when you go shopping with Mom & Dad.

Tell Barbara that Allie, she used to baby sit her & her brother, learned to ride a 2 wheel bike & she is doing so good.  She rides in the school yard.

Our love to all.
