Dear Shelby,

What a pretty card!  Thanks!  I'm always glad to hear from you.

I had a nice trip.  The scenery was lovely!  I had a nice lunch & visited the gift shop.

I will read "The Black Velvet Gown" before your mom comes up in a couple of weeks & send the book back by her for you.  It was one of my finds at the library.  I always look in the small room for their extra books which are usually priced at 10 cents & 25 cents.  I also got Danielle Steel's book "Remembrance".

The weather here is very "crisp".  It is a beautiful day for a long walk.

Nicole is doing fine just now.  She is in a bowling league.

Donna's Tara called me from Bon Air on Friday & said she had been over to the mall at Southside at a baby contest or something and won $25.  She wanted to know how I was doing.  She is coming up for Thanksgiving because they want to be home for Christmas!

I think your mom is enjoying her retirement.

Ruth & I went out to the "Olive Garden" on Wednesday for lunch.

This pen has such a coarse point and makes the ink come out so fast.

Well hon, not much news here so if you can read this, answer when you have time!  Take care & love to Jack.

Love always,

Grandma
