I am writing you a letter also tonight but thought I would send the picture seperate. This is the only picture I was able to get in fact this one wasn’t gotten on the up + up. I wish you would get some extra prints made from this and send me a few back, I’d like to send one to Elaine + Zoe. I hope the picture reaches you in good shape because it means a good deal to me.

Reading from left to right they are: James Gist; Bob Cloos; Long John; Joe Gervais; yours truly; and “Red” Barratt. Back of the Stearman is the McDowell Mts. range.
Love,
Tom
