Dear Mom. Dad & All:-
George came down Saturday and spent the weekend
with me. He stayed at a nearby hotel and had his meals with me.
My housekeeper was very good to him and he was quite happy. Went
hiking in the hills Sunday afternoon. Will send snapshots of us together.
Evelyn is writing to you and to Art & Mary. Her pictures turned
out well and she will send them when she gets the finished ones the sixteenth.
We cannot recieve any more packages from home. George says give Dad
the toilet kit. No need to write separate letters to us. Send
letters to me and I will read them and forward them to George. He
received your January letter, but I have not yet received the one you said
in his that you wrote to me. I have gained thirteen pounds since
December 1st when I started eating at my billet, now weigh 147 Ibs.
Hope you are all as well and are as happy as we are here.
Love to all,
Bob
