Dear Folks,

I started another tape for you this evening. It doesn't look like I'll be able to finish it tonight. I've done ran out of words. So I should be able to fill it tomorrow.

It has been sunny and hot and we didn't have our daily thundershower. No exceptionally hard work today. Had chicken for lunch and beef pot roast for supper at the mess hall.

 Took a jog out to the gate again this evening with Duff and walked back. Just writing this letter to keep daily flowing mail coming to you. I'm alive and well and the world is treating me just fine. So no worries, no troubles and lots of love.

Rick
