Dear Shelby,

Thanks for the letter.

I am sure you are all keyed up about the house. I would be!

No, I didn't get Reeboks! I got "L.A. Gear". They didn't have 7 1/2 in Reeboks so I got practically the same as the Princess style I wear in the white for $20 less on sale.

It took about 2 hours to Atlantic City by way of Philly.

I am reading the book on Ethel Kennedy. I have read about 100 pages so far. There is one out now about Mrs. Rose Kennedy. I can't remember the name but Rose is the last word.

Dr. Shore says I'm fine for my age. Just all the aches and pains that go with GETTING OLD!

What a travesty of justice that OJ trial turned out to be. He will pay -- one way or another before everything is settled.

Did you get much rain & bad weather from "Opal"? We got wind and about 3 days of rain.

Dr. Shore's nurse gave me 11 weeks supply of one of my medicines. The expensive one -- they are all expensive but this was the worst.

If you get a chance, take a picture of your mom. I want to send it to Paula. She is always asking about her.

Well hon, not much news here so write when you get a chance. Take care!

Love to you & Jack.

Love always,

Grandma
