Dear Jessie, Well I hear that you had quite a snow storm.I got a letter from next door neigbor and she told if she was me that she wouldn't be in any hurry in coming home. I don't know yet just when I'll be home. The weather out here is still lovely. We had rain yesterday but thats the first since I've been here. We had a lovely xmas but it was dull for me though without Harold[?]. I was so glad that [----] was here with the kids. Are you going on your trip this month? Love, Myrtle
