More From Mom

Tuesday, June 10, 1969 To. Craig from Mom
Hi Hon,
Well how is my boy today? I thought probably I would get a letter this morning but there wasn't. Maybe I'll get one tonite. Dad is working today and I'm trying to do some work around here today. I'm defrosting the refrigerator right now and boy that is one hell of a job. I went down and took care of the ducks and they are an awful mess. We just cleaned them all good yesterday but it is just as bad again today they are getting real big now. I'm going to get some hay or straw to put in the pen after I clean it out. Jake can't do anything he has high blood pressure and his heart is acting up so he can't do anything about the ducks now.
We got rid of 2 crows yesterday they were making so much noise. Dad's going to make a perch out here on the porch and get it outside.
We went over to Kathy's reception Saturday just for one drink. I didn't drink like I did at Henry's so I went to work sober. Alice Chambers is all done work so they are down to the cottage they want us to come down but we haven't made it yet.
Boy everyone is getting married this summer. There has been Henry and Kathy so far and Debbie Pickette, Kathy Garrett and Diane Bouncy are all getting married this summer and I can't think of anyone else right now. I told Mim that when you come home you'd be the only single guy left in Three Mile Bay. Oh I forgot to mention Debiie Stunysh is also getting married in August I believe.
Dad worked a little on the barn yesterday it is going to seem funny with that out of there. We weren't so busy up to Lees over the week-end, it is on account of graduation time.
I went down to Sharons Friday and took the kids toys down. Kyle met me right at the door and the first thing he said was Where's Grandpa. He acted as if he didn't care about me at all only his Grandpa. When I left all 3 of them said Good bye and thanked me for the toys and gave me a kiss. Gerry doesn't bring them out he has been busy planting the oats and things I guess.
Well Hon I've got to get busy and I can't think of anything more to write about. I hope everything is good with you. Take care of my boy and write soon.
Love,
Mom & Dad
