Dear Mother, Dad, & Mary,
Hi! 6:00 seemed to come alot earlier this morning with the advent of day light savings time. At least it was light so we won't have to get used to getting up in the dark again. And that extra hour is nice in the evening.
We got your last week's letter on Friday. Glad to hear that you had a good if quick trip to North Carolina and that Grandma got home OK. We'll put June of 1982 on our calendar of events and see what we can do about getting there -- that will be the hard part.
We have been practicing our golf some more and plan to join the golf course as of May 1st so we will be able to play next Saturday. We haven't played since last June which was one of the few times we played last summer since we didn't join Madras course. It costs $23 per month for a family membership here. It costs extra for swimming pool privileges which we might consider if DeeDee will be here long enough to take advantage of the pool.
Elizabeth Johnson sent us a letter last week and included a picture of Dad with the other two County Commissioners which she said had been in the Blanchester paper. It was a promotion for a cancer drive or something. We also got a letter from Roberta which was a surprise, probably the first one in six months.
Wendy is now sitting on my lap "helping" me type. She likes to push down on the keys but it makes the going very slow. She especially likes the "W" as that is what she starts with or rather her name if you know what I mean. We'll have to get her a typewriter of her own pretty soon!
Now I am having a hard time getting her to let me type so I better take back over here while I have the chance. We got two new radial tires for the truck last week -- first ones we've gotten since we had the truck which we bought in January of 1978. Now we have to get the brakes worked on. Wendy and I went out for a bike ride on Saturday and had the tires filled with air after which the front tire blew out so it is now in the repair shop getting fixed. It should be ready to pick up today.
Time to go so we better be off.
Love, Catherine, Gerry & Wendy
