23 March 1943

 

Dearest Folks:

I have settled my conscience by writing my overdue letters so now I can turn to you and give you  a resume.  I had a long letter from a gal in Washington, one of these prefabricated jobs that was pretty amusing.  She is a faithful correspondent.  Night before last I saw the show “In This Our Life’   which I thought was for duper and teaching than the story itself.  I suppose you are beginning to plan the garden already and to undertake spring cleaning. I believe Dad’s next best pursuit is gardening.  Although the first day comes in without much adieu here, I did remember the day.  It was a very hot one. Next month I hope to have my pictures taken before I get out of camera range. You probably have the things by now.  I wish I could be there to see Phil in his  trunks.  I hope they fit.

I’ve come to the end of the rope tonight which is little more than a note.  Nancy’s lesson on the off-tune, yellow stained piano keys would be like a symphony from Raikmaninoff.  You’ll never know how much I miss home.

Love,

Harold Moss Signature
