I wish I were going to get off at that station [???] country. This [???] but was afraid I can't. We had a little rain the other day which was thankfully received. Yes we wanted to do some quick repairing but had no luck in finding a person to do the work so we have to wait until the last of the week. Had a card from June [???] She and Ernest are at home now. Hope your father is very much better now. Went out to Grandma's this PM she was feeling very well. [???] and I took a walk in Forest Park.
