Dear Love: We are going along nicely- a little rough, but not bad- partially cloudy. There are only about 6 passengers aboard. I shall lie down soon and sleep a while. We are due in Kansas City in 1 ½ hours. So far I have just read the paper and Science Fiction. Sooner or later I'll have to write a story. Much love.
