Dear Catherine:

We got home Saturday about 3 PM after spending the night near Fort Wayne, Indiana.  Stopped to see the Schamauns Saturday A.M. and they have a beautiful Church there, built new in 1960.  The parsonage is right next door.  Did you know that Greg had a little accident with his bike in Fla. and they [Greg's school?] have a meal ticket with Howard Johnsons five days a week but the other two days they are on their own as far as eats.  What meal does K miss?  How is the steak night?  In fact we are interested in hearing all the details.

Really warmed up here today to the 80ยบ mark.  Ruth Shoemaker had made John a birthday cake so celebrated his birthday yesterday.  Had Grandma and Grandad up along with Mrs. Smith and they all stayed till 4 P.M. which is pretty much of a record.

Had 19 at MYF last night.  Your Mother had the program which was on decisions.  She wrote several letters like to Dear Abbey and then handed them out and asked the members to write a reply which seemed to go over pretty good.

Mrs. Walker was talking to us about seeing her sister-in-law who lives near Detroit and told her how hard it is to get into K College because of their high standing, etc. etc. etc., so we are sure you will have some wonderful experiences.

Have you used your bike any yet?  Is the computer still in the box?  Enclosing your Kimberly Clark check which I have endorsed over to you.  Let us know if you have trouble cashing checks for may have to make other plans, if so.

We have some clippings up home but they can come at a later time.  Good luck, Catherine.


Dad
