Feb. 4 - 1979
Dear John -A few minutes ago the phone rang & it was Roberta & Mary V. who had called. A surprise. It seems as if Mary V. will be coming home in two weeks. They are all pepped up over their Spanish lessons they are taking. As to the picture you will find one enclosed. Would have sent it sooner but was waiting until you were back in school for when you were floating around I didn't know where you might be from one week to the next. So hope you will recognize who it might be.
The house has quieted down some what since the Kintners left. Larry flew in & after a few days they left to spend a couple of days with Larry's folks on the west coast then last evening Uncle B. & Aunt M. phoned Cris & M. & the Kintners had arrived at 4 o'clock in Hickory. It seems as if Cris has been looking for another job & he was in N.Y. state the first of the week & some how he slid (car) on the highway crossing the median into the opposite highway & just missed 2 cars & was still nervous over his close call. No damage, he was driving a rented car. That was what might happen to anyone during snowy weather when striking an icy spot. So do be careful. Cris is still with his present job, but feels as if he wants to make a change with another (?) Co.
We ate dinner with Uncle Bill's sister Frances & John today by picnicking in their trailer park. A very nice day but a sweater felt comfortable.
As to my driving home don't think about coming to Fla. when you are busy as you will have many hears (hopefully) to come to Fla. & I can easily fly home by plane when the time comes. In fact I haven't thought about it yet. Since you will be graduating it will be a busy spring time I expect.
We have missed a couple of Wed. dinners but plan to go this Wed. It will be a turkey menu so announced.
This last week Aunt M. had a bad cold so far the rest of us are fine. What kind of a grade did you get on the paper you worked on while in Fla. We have wondered. I know you are used to making good grades.
Love,
Grandma
