Just a brief note to tell you how pleasantly surprised we were when we turned the page Tues, the 25th & saw the announcement of your engagement.  It's a lovely picture.  Yesterday was the senior group at church & many favorable comments came our way.  And I'm sure we'll hear more tonite at Lenten Midweek.  At the mtg. Tues the Nazarene pastor spoke of his travels to U.S.S.R.  So very interesting - we prefer a speaker to slides.

Last Sun. we had company for dinner - Mel, Levina & Loren Bohman.  We had a nice time visiting.  This Sat nite company again as Dad doesn't preach the 1st Sun.  Alice & Jim Greenlund, Myrt & Jer Wallin & Joyce O'Connor.  We'll eat early so we can play games.  We have fun.

Back to Loren - he is an '80 grad of Augustana & his grandfather was a pastor.  He spent 6 weeks in Sweden & goes to Jamestown to be with the Swedish folk dancing group.  (I'll get it after awhile.)  [Some crossouts in this paragraph.]


Lar was sick last week - sore throat, ache, & it went into his chest.  When he called on Sat. he sounded terrible.  I sent a meal over with Kim.  He is better now.  Kim had the flu but a different kind & Dale's was still different.  Dad & I (knock on wood) haven't been sick & hope we stay healthy.  Lent is too busy a time to get sick.

Have to go grocery shopping & this is just a note.

How's the apt. or house hunting?
