Dear Ma & Sister I received your post card. That well reminded me of the good old Mil[waukee] Wis[consin]. Many a good swim I had around there swimming schools below the bridge. Water always looks good to me. But our pond is still closed as I told you. That damn fluenza. We got to take two baths a week. I take four and sometimes five. No laughing. Best of luck To all. I’m feeling good. Good bye.
