Dear Boogoo,

Expect to be free Saturday afternoon to Sunday afternoon.

Will meet you at Mission Inn sometime Saturday P.M. You'll like the place very much.

Soloed in slips, skids and stalls today. Saturday solo is loops, Immermanns [Immelmanns], falling leafs, etc. Simple as falling off a log.

Come up here and rest your brain, As ever, Lesley

There was no news at home dear since my last letter to you.

Fondest love, our thoughts are always with you

Your loving Mother R. Helen Bates

P.S. We heard that Martha & her father were going up to the Nelson Ranche [Ranch] Where Jocelyn is yesterday.
