Dear folks,<\/p>\n

Just to let you know I received all the packages from you today. All my roommates as well as I want to thank you a lot. The raisin cookies were a little broken up but there isn’t a crumb left so it didn’t matter much.<\/p>\n

We started on our schedule today. I am one of the fellows that doesn’t have to take math. I get to start right into navigation. In a way it is a break. We have about 2 hrs. of study time and not much time to ourself. I will try to get a letter off to you soon but lights out in 10 min. I was glad to hear that Karen is now in possession of a tooth. Don’t forget to send a picture. Use this address that’s on the front from now on.<\/p>\n

Love, Tom<\/p>\n
