December 24

      Christmas Eve! And still few

people seem to be getting completely

into the spirit of things – with

Floyd in New Guinea – Bill in

Mississippi – Bill in [Clinton?] and

unable to get home either – etc. –

things seem very different. I

wish those "Dreaming of a

White Christmas" could come

true --- and soon too!

     We trimmed the tree

today and decorated the house

with candles and holly and

evergreens – placed cards

at strategic places on radiator

covers and the piano – and

generally dressed up the house.

     Dad came out at 3:30 –

we all had fun together

doing little in particular.

     Letter from Bill Boyd. Sounds

lonesome!
