Dear Friend, What kind of a time did u have at the fair? I don't think I had a good time as four years ago. I wish I could of had a longer talk with u. But the first time I was with my folk whom I had not seen for 18 mo. Before I left them that lady came and stuck like glue. So you see I was in it. Now don't forget to ans. this and some day I will tell U what you said about me. f.f.B. his could be t.t.B, not sure, but he seems like a suitor. I like him - he seems sassy.
