Dear Mother: We are still alive and as G says "fine and dandy." It isn't {unintelligible} almost raining now so don't worry about us. We are always protected, you know {unintelligible}, so we are all right. We are going to drive over to Carmel Mission and Point Lobos this aft. Wish you and sis were here. Lovingly, "Dude"Language
