Albuquerque, N.M.
Dear Slim:
Just a note. I'm too busy to write altho I think of you every day.
I was in Florida for about 10 days working on my mother's very old papers and other things. Then Helen, my sister, and Mother and I went by plane to Denver. Left after 2 days and came here to Albuquerque. We have been looking at buildings to buy to live in but it is all poor quality and expensive. Now we decided to look for a residence for the 3 of us to live in. Looks expensive too but not impossible.
It has rained here every day since we came on the 13th and is raining now. That's more rain then in the last 10 months.
