Hello,
I hope this card drops a few lines to let you know that I have forgotten a busy time here now. It is small but it looks nice. The hay and oats look fine for this day. There is scarce wheat to speak of. The fruit is scarce; the garden is good. I have good luck so far. Well, Kate, I don't have much news.
