Dear Maurice, A cheery hello to you. Presume this has been a pleasant, happy week for you with all the folks there except Johnny. Was hoping might get there also. Now there will be a delay in my leaving. Can not plan ahead at all it seems. So now there is plenty of time to finish the car. Pleasant thoughts, most sincerely, Glenn. Hope you are feeling O.K. again. Maybe the car is rusted out beyond repairing - they rust out fast down here.Language
