Dear Elva.

I am still here & would have written sooner but I have been expecting to go out hourly but it still hasn’t come off as yet but I am still hoping. The weather here is raining and muddy I don’t care for it at all. I would even take Conn. to this haha How is my honey this fine day I sure would like to see you. I’ll bet it would be nice at the beach now. I sure would like to go swimming I haven’t been swimming this year How is Bill Ill bet he really enjoy the summer vacation. Tell all the folks I said hello.

Lots of Love Your sailor

Buf.
