"Sorry the pics you sent have never arrived. School out soon & you’ll have summer ahead; plans? I have mighty large plans, but probably delayed ‘cause so much work to do; enjoying life here but would trade it for a chicken dinner, Am beer, & a good dance orchestra.
Wonderful weather, but we work most evenings; get up betw 2 & 6am; take turns lighting fire, then back in bed until tent warms up; usually midday we get a slack period & can rest up for the afternoon & evening work. Write me soon. Love, Charlie B."
