Saturday noon [10/7] My darling: Wendy and I have just come home from downtown - there was no mail, but perhaps there will be some this afternoon or tomorrow morning. Last night I turned my reading light out about 11:30, and had just dozed off when I was awakened by much noise - honking of car horn, shouting etc. I got up to see what all the commotion was, and it was Bev good and tight! She came in and said she wanted to talk - so bleary eyed I sat down to listen. Her voice was about two pitches higher than usual, and she kept repeating herself. It was really very funny and rather silly. I felt about 10 years older than she, especially after she read through a letter she had just received from Bud- sounded like college love. I do think Bud is a good guy and very sincere, and must be deeply in love with Bev. Anyway she went on and on about going to Ohio. She has to drive 600 miles [pg 2] a day in order to get there on time, if she does it will be something of a miracle. She left shortly after 12:00 after betting me 5 doz. Cookies that she’d be back in January! Tonight Mrs. Price is coming to dinner, and I'm planning to have apricot juice, baked ham, sweet potatoes, broccoli and Brown Betty - Hope I still remember how to cook. Have put an ad in the paper for 3 nights about a camera - hope we get something. Wendy behaved beautifully, [?] night went to sleep at 7:00 and slept til breakfast time, and then went back to sleep. When I woke up she was singing to herself. Bev N. said that Gil had gone up to the house the other day and was very pleased at the way we’d left it. Just think darling you've been gone two weeks now - it seems an eternity - Will write you again tonight sweety- Lots of love from both your sweeties- Bobby
