keep packing clothes Gord keeps and Jasper over the weekend It been a pretty late spring as far as Lake Iiuise Is concerned I the trails but there s lots of places where the trails arc covered with snow up to twenty feet in some needing them and hauling them places Maybe a few good rains out again The new jeans I will clear them by by the end of ordered from Alberta a month this month ago have got lost In the mail And I can picture us now huddled I discovered I m going to have up close to our horses trying to to buy a few more clothes keep warm while the guides try because nil the nice warm

thro Peking meter in which Id put off their horses and broken a money He accepted my wrist an ankle and a tailbone explanation that I was from a rtic message came through to me meterless town and
