Hi

Just got home from the Floriade and A lovely 5 course luncheon with the Board – 51 of us. We drove in a big bus thru the beautiful tulip fields – a lovely sunny day, not too chilly. The cocktail last night was ok – Marilynn’s spinach dip was a real hit! Mary H. Sends her love to you. Hope all is okay in Pl–

The Empire Strikes Back

1981

Dear

Thanks again for your directions and company. How was your St Pats evening? How was work the next morning? I had a frightful nightmare last night. I dreamed the only stationary available in Madison had pictures of our governor on it. So glad it was only a dream.

Love Steve

Terrace Hill’s Stained Glass Window

2003

What a loot – all I need now is a nose ring – thanks. I guess I gave the guard rings hard use thru the years because I loved them. Could you please send me directions for the Kint outlet for yarn. I saw something like in Lion Brand catalog. Your stay was much too short. Jean looks great! Showers continue in a timely manner. Hope to see you in the fall. Swimming has helped.
