Well,
how is the Rich residence doing? Roger,
how is your knee coming along? Also,
your mouth? (Dentures) I hope that you are healing
fast, and are able to get back to work.
I guess you probably get pretty bored sitting around. Just don't get too rambunctious. Save it for hunting next year. There is another typhoon by us again. It doesn't look like it will hit very
hard. Darn, I guess we won't miss work
a day. Is Gwen working all the time
now? How are the kids doing in
school. And how are Zac's eyes? Gee, I
wish we could have been there to see Terri.
I can't tell you how much I miss her.
It's hard to count for 5 still.
Does she seem like she's grown up any more? These kids say she even sounds different on
the phone. Guess I'll have to wait till
July to decide. How is the weather now? From watching the news here, I guess it's
been dry. Will your well be ok? Well, Brenda is driving all over now. (She thinks she's a pro!) And Darrin measured 5'8" last
night. And Todd, he's still playing
lover-boy. And the kids and Bruce are
crying the blues, because they are missing hunting again. How has your new
vehicle been running? Do you still like
it? Did you get the rest of your outside
work finished? Mom said everyone was
going to help you. Well, write when you
get a minute. We love and miss you, Love Linda
(Same
date as above)
Dear
Amanda, You are really growing up fast!
Have you been helping your dad a lot?
How is school this year? What are
you dressing up like for Halloween? Are
you having a parade at school? Send us a
picture of you and Zac in your outfits please.
P.S. Todd has a girlfriend. Do
you have a boyfriend? Love you, Linda
Dear
Zac, How are you? We are all fine. How do you like school now? Have you been helping your dad with the
chores? Halloweens is coming pretty
soon. What are you dressing up
like? And where are you going trick or
treating? Have you seen any deer on your
hill this year? Love and miss you, Linda

It's
always so good to get your letters. It
makes all of our day! I am glad that
your knee is healing well. I'm sure
you'll be back to work soon. It seems
like money is always a problem. Even here! How are the kids now? Did they get over the flu? I hope so. I hate for the kids to be
sick. I'm glad you got to see
Terri. They tell me she added a few
pounds. I guess that comes with
marriage. Gwen, what have you been up
to lately? Working hard? Have you started any Christmas shopping
yet? We went the other day and got most
of the things we need to send home. Now,
it's just getting them wrapped and in the mail.
Was it hard saying good-bye to Mark?
I know how they (good-byes) are.
I don't want any more of those.
Hope you can read this today.
I've been sick with the flu and I kind of have the shakes today. I bet you were glad it started to
rain. Has the snow come yet? I miss the fall there. We are trying to figure out when to go to
Korea (still) and we'll let you know in plenty of time for things. I'll close for now. Take care.
Love and miss you, Linda.
