"We are having a good time. This mornign we went on a big hike, we came to a farm and didn't know what to do, so we went on a road and came up to a lot of grass and mother had to carry Tucker. Then we came to some blackberries and wheat field and a carn field before we got home. Fritz."

Was very glad to hear from you. Saw our pictures at Anna's home. They are all good but me. I told my mother that I spoil the whole tihng. I would not mind if I would a few.
