Monday-
Lots of room here for Correspondence. Feared Mamma might worry if I didn't write again soon. Got your card and sort of hope you won't get return tickets to that [?] - only 9 months time but perhaps it will give more stop-over privileges. You must have all the stop-overs you want going back. But there may be a big difference in price. Do hope this beautiful weather will last until you come but guess it will. Seems to me it always lasts. Only of course we have to get a little [sic] to cool us off sometimes. HaHa. So glad you are all better. Am going to run to the P.O. with this. The days are flying past so it will not be long until you are here.
Love from Sis.
