Why not drop me a line -- Mary Lou Hartog, Box 194, Wonder Lake, and tell me where you are and what you're doing? I don't have to know everything you're doing but let us know where you are stationed, what kind of work you are doing and any other newsy little tidbits that you think the home folks might like to read about.
