I am kept very busy. Quite a change from Provincial Government snap I had, most of the day being spent in amongst the magazines, etc. I shall not forget those days, especially the food we had in honour of Eustace's enlistment.
I hear you have been getting some very bad weather over there. It has been wonderful here and the spring here as you know, is something to remember. Have taken several trips into the country during the week-end and figure nothing could be more beautiful.
I spend most of my evenings now playing tennis as we have several courts at the house here. Did not know anything about the game when I left home but will not want to give it up now. Have also been down the river on several picnics. Figure I may as well see all the sights while I can as a reserve unit may be my home in a week's time.
