Dear Grandma,
How are you today. I am fine. It rained some here yesterday evening. Glenn and I got out in it. We sure had a good time. did it rain there? Tell Uncle Earl I wish I could have been with him longer. Tell Emmett I miss him. Tell Robert Earl hello, for you know I never got to see him. Is Billy Edward walking, I guess he is though? Dorothy Ann is walking good now. I sent for a sample two weeks ago today and I got it today. It was La France washing powders, Mama she used some to wash with this morning. Mama is reading. Well I've got to wash the dishes, so will close,
With love to all, Dale
