Dearest
Kitten:
It is a
marvelous day out and it makes me feel slightly lazy. Spring fever or something
I guess. What I feel like doing is to stretch out on a beach in the sun. That
would be ideal if you could be with me.
I do not
understand how it can be possible for me to love you anymore than I do, but
from day to day my love for you is getting bigger. If I stay over here very
long I am sure to explode from love of you.
Sunday we
went to a baseball game between the Army & Navy. The Engineers furnished a
whole team for half of the game and the other half was made up of a team from
other units around here. We got the pants trimmed off of us by the Navy. It was
mostly due to the fact that they had six major league players in their lineup.
Tell Roland
Thurber that they pitched Charlie Wagner - Benny McCoy FstB - Phil Rizzuto SS -
Rocco English 3rd B - Don Padgett LF & Dom Dimaggio CF. The Army lost 17-0.
The Engineers held them to five runs in the first half of the game. I was like
a kid at his first circus and enjoyed the game very much. It was played at the
Exhibition Grounds in Brisbane and a goodly crowd was there.
From letter
#131 you sure are raising H--- around the house. Getting very ambitious lately,
aren’t you? Expecting your husband home? Or maybe it is the milk man. Anyhow I
am glad to see that you are keeping my workshops in order.
Yes they are
Xmas gifts if you must know so stop being so curious. You will get what is
coming to you eventually.
There are
some very nice beaches around but due to transportation it is a bit hart to get
out to them.
By golly,
Arthur & Lorraine certainly have something to be proud of. Their son is a
very nice looking youngster. I feel sorry for Arthur that he has never seen his
son. He is not the only one that is that way though. There are a great many men
in the Army today who have never seen their youngsters.
The
youngsters did alright for their birthdays. They should have toys enough to
last them for awhile. Too many toys is apt to spoil them though.
Well
Sweetheart I must close as I have run out of words.
I told Mother
about getting out more and not to center her life around the youngsters. A trip
to Hartford will do her a world of good and I kind of hope she gets a job and
stays there for awhile.
Darling, I
love you with all my heart. Regards to everyone and kiss the babies for me.
Your Loving
Devoted & Faithful Husband,
Bob
