I'm enjoying the picture of your sweet kids and can just imagine how you must enjoy those vivacious realities! But now none of them are (is?) at home? Since I'm not getting along very will on even these High Time letters (written in March) I'm going to bundle them up and take them along when I go to visit my sister Minnie this week - plan to write 5 per day. Not going to stay long though - I'm committed now to tutor a 5th grade black girl, and the project is so near I mustn't take time out for a vacation. That's on Wednesday. Then I must be back for reading to Attorney [Pearce ?] on Monday. Those are things I can't put off to someone else. Minnie and I are only 40 miles apart (she's at [Sac ?] City but there's no bus service and neither of us has access to a car. One of our more active residents here loves to have an excuse to go driving and will drive if I furnish gas. Which I'll gladly do. His wife is frail and in our Health Center and is too tired to go for rides and he misses his trips. My friend Ruth [Go?ich], an ex-English teacher, will do my library stint on Saturday. Have a grand summer! Will any of the kids be home then? Love, May
