They call this Sunny France but we have had cold weather for the last few days like march weather at home but is turning warmer again. [?] [?] Popular Hill picnic. I hope Jean comes out all right if she is going to dance. Well Donalda I am getting pretty chummy with some of the people round here I have had green Onions + Green Peas and Lettuce + a few Strawberries but that dont come every day.
