Dear Marg:

Just want to let you know we are all doing fine except the weather is miserable, the wind blows constantly up on day and back the next. I see by the paper you have been having considerable weather back there. There isn’t much news at least I don’t get to[o] much.

Last week the kids went to Cortez for a band meet. Several bands were the[re] but it was not a contest. However our band showed up exceptionally well. Now Frances tells me they have received an invitation to a band meet in Durango the 15th of April. I wish they could enter into some kind of a contest while Mr. Taylor is here.

I gave Joe $2.00 to put in his pocket book for his birthday which made him quite happy. He is still looking for your present. Yesterday was union meeting in Monticello. The Ward reunion last Friday and I was there, a nice entertainment.

Well I hope the weather will moderate a little before you have to come home so you will get a little more pleasure out of your visit. This is about all for this time.

Love to you and all the rest.

M.F.L.
