Dear Folks: I wrote a letter as planned Friday night but one of the kids spilled a coke on it so I'll write another and get it mailed in the morning. We certainly had a good connection the other night. It was swell talking to you. The wire arrived about seven o'clock Saturday morning. Ruth and I went downtown for lunch Saturday and then went to the show. We had lots of fun. Elmer took care of the kids for us. When we came out of the show it was snowing hard and it snowed hard all night. It was such wet snow it didn't stay on the ground very long. We all went to bed early Saturday night and stayed home all day today as it still isn't nice out. Ruth is going to Virginia Wednesday morning for a couple of days. We are getting along just fine and Gary is having lots of fun. Nellie just called to see if Ruth and I wanted to go to the show with them in a few minutes. Elmer said he would put Gary to bed so we are going. More later. Love, Helen Monday morning I'll just add a couple of lines as Elmer will be leaving in a minute. Pierce treated us to the show last night and Elmer managed fine with the kids. Love, Helen It looks like the sun will shine today.
