Are you going to Austria this summer? I guess not, since you said nothing.

I wish you could find good tenants for that house. It is such a beautiful place. Joel still mentions it! He's coming to visit us this month, and thinks the view will remind him of the Alps! The Blue Ridge is sweet, but it's not the Alps, so I hope he won't be too disappointed. I get a little weak when I think of interviewing people - (6 mos., or a year from now,) to live in this house. I want someone like you and Carolyn and Jestina... and that's asking for the impossible, I know. If you hear of someone, let me know, please!

Happy Birthday, Nell! July is the month isn't it (5th, 6th, 7th... can't quite remember!)  Seems ages since I saw you, but you seemed to be everywhere in those delightful gardens around Endora Cottage. It was fun putting those little plants in the ground! Did Carolyn find the BASIL? - or did the bunny find it first?  Maybe that's where the parsley went!!

The Vermont Cart (lg. one) is waiting for me to put a coat of varnish on its sides. Thanks for sending such joy via parcel post. I love your paintings, Nell!

Love to you, and all on Ledge Rd., Maruge
