Hello Everyone:

I'll bet you never thought you would hear from me in Texas. Well, I never thought I'd be here myself. We have nice weather. The people are swell. Joined Mr. & Mrs. Leslie Ross & Doris instructing and is sure of a beastly algae water works publicly, Springfield, Ohio for weeks and all more. He gets off every night and all day Sunday. If you get time, write to me.
Lots of Love,
Vera
