Dear Shelby,

Received your letter on Tuesday.  Glad to hear from you.

It is gloomy & dreary today.  I am trying to clean.

The building maintenance electrician came a while ago to put a new switch on my hood over the stove.  I use the light a lot.  If I hadn't seen him & just heard him talk, I would have sworn it was your Dad.  It turns out he was from Dinwiddie.  He said he moved up here with AT&T & later retired from there.

Did you get all your trees planted?  That must have been a job.

Your Mom said she wanted to come up soon but this week it is supposed to be rainy.

The tulips & hyacinths are blooming here.

I have been listening to the O.J. trial.  It sure is interesting.  He just sits there & smirks & rolls his eyes.  

Did I tell you I had my car inspected last week?  We have to have an emissions test  & a sticker that says we had it plus all the other things they do for inspection.  I did have the tires rotated.

Well hon, not much news here , so write when you can & love to Jack!  Take care.

Love always,

Grandma
