January 1982, The Hague

Dear K

It is a dull, rainy Monday morning – I should have just stayed in bed! At least, we don’t have snow as yet altho it is possible. So good to visit with you yesterday – Bill called last night and said you got your car dug out. I’m packing – in and out as I change my mind on what to take. I don’t seem to be able to make decisions any better with age! Wish you were going along. Isn’t this a nice painting? Colors are great in the original.

Dear K

We got your letter today – had been anxious to hear. Snow seems to abound everywhere this year, although we have none a the moment, just cold temps. This is one of the lovely paintings we saw on your Xmas trip of to this museum. We bought a print of this to be framed. Today is sunny, so I must get out. Bill leaves soon from Schiphol for US. I had a good visit with Tom’s last Wed. – all 3 of them! You can come here for your next long vacation, no? We go to Amsterdam for dinner and concert on Monday night.

Love, Va
