Dearest Dora & all—
Yes darling I have been busy for a couple of weeks. Same old daddy, but I think about you all the time. I will try to do better in the future.
Your last letter came today. The first thing when I got up there it was. Sure was glad to hear from Phylis Here is a kiss for her x.
Glad to hear dad is well[.] hope he has good health and happiness for a long time to come.
How did your election come out? We sure had a scare in this state. [p. 1] It looked like we were going to have Sinclair for governor. He is a communist. And the one that got in is a thief so that is that. Politics!
What are all you folks doing? Walt & Geo & Amelia & Vera and dad. Tell them all hello.
I was over to San Francisco a week ago sunday. Had a swell Italian dinner and walked all through China Town. I saw so many pretty things. If I had the dough I would send you lots of pretty things. Next week is your birthday. So I will have to write again Sunday. Do you feel that old?
I saw my friend Max Yesterday. He is sure up against it Ten years as a bootlegger and not a dime saved up. And his health all gone. No Job and none in sight.
Well dear you say to be a good boy. I sure am doing my best. I am trying like ever to [p. 2] do what is rite. My worst habbit has been booze. I haven’t had a drink for a week now. Feel lots better.
Thanks for the phone call sweetheart mine. It was wonderful to hear you and the girls. I love you oh so much dear. Yes I remember Halloween years ago. So many sweet memories. I can never forget The boat ride, The trip to East canyon, the trips to Saltair. So I remember? Do you?
Love to you all[.] will write sunday
