1980 Roberta's Letter -Aug.6

[mailed to Hawaii, then postmarked "Return to Sender" on Aug. 17]
Hi!  

Thanks for the 2 postals -- too bad you all won't be here for our special Hawaiian day tomorrow at work -- special menu -- & encouraging all to wear their "H" prints -- or something wild!

Have had to get used to the horrible heat all over again -- got the July elec. bill --$99.43 & to think I keep the temp in the house at 80º -- plenty warm!!

Sure enjoyed all the fresh veggies -- here cabbage is 39¢ per pound & beans 59-69¢ per pound,  Am saving 1 of both the cherries & apple sauce -- the other of both are long gone!  Thanks!

Have been busy distributing the clothes -- office at work has been turned into a dressing room each morning.  My closet & drawers are packed to capacity!!

Dr. Sears & wife (1st Meth - Mesa) are in Hawaii now for 2 months.  Have you seen Lucille?  What day should you all be arriving in Madras?

Sure was a good cash bonus you all got by taking later flight -- or maybe you all didn't get it -- postmark was too thick!!

Haven't used the car except to get the estimate ($600) done on the front damage.  Got 108 mpg on last tank of gas on the bike.

When G'ma & I were in Hawaii I rented a mo-ped one day --

Hope you all enjoying Hawaii to the most -- thanks again for all --

Love,
Berta
