April 1st Easter Sunday V-Mail to Mom


April 1st Easter Sunday, East of the Rhine

Dearest Mom, 
Boy o boy, this letter I got from you the other night really made time if you get what I mean. December 7th to March 29th is quite a space on the calendar. 

The Christmas card that came in the letter was really sweet. The notes from each of the family that were home at the time I want to keep so I'm going to send the card home to Leona to put in her scrap book. 

I'm glad grandma Winsor had such a nice visit with you. Hope that the whole family can get together before too long. How is grandma Snow now? Tell them both I'd give a lot to throw my arms around them again. Of course that goes for all of the family too! I miss you all so much. 

Easter has been quite restful (for a change) Got a shower this morning. There were church services this afternoon and we even got an Easter egg for dinner. (Minus coloring)

My love to all 
Lu

Last night I got my first pass in France and we all went into a little town nearby (I'll tell you its name when I'm allowed). Of course the first thing the boys I was with headed for... ...was a wine shop, but that did them no good- "Bosche Take" was all they could get from the proprietress. That was the way with every th...
