Dear Dot & Dana,

            Another day gone by and as usual I am fine and everything is going pretty good except it is god awful hot and the heat rash is bothering me a little.

            We didn’t celebrate Thanksgiving day on its day cause, we were very busy but probably will sometime next week.  I hope you a Dana enjoyed yourselves, maybe next year we can be together again. 

            How is Mary getting along?  I haven’t heard from her in a long time.

            I sure hope I get some more mail in a few days.  I have got only three letters in about 7 weeks.  I suppose by now it is awful cold at home and maybe a little snow.  Wish I could see some for a change.  I don’t understand why some people leave such a wonderful state to go to Florida for the winter. 

            Well dear, I am just waiting for the day I’ll be with you and Dana again, I miss you lots.  Be a good little boy Dana and study hard in school.

                                                            Love and kisses
