Frasier says he thinks she’s unhappy because she can’t find anything about us to criti cize! She’S crazy about Frasier— thinks he’s about the nicest thing that evter was and she says “why don’t you ever say anything?” Well, you know how Frasier is when he starts talking—the way she talks, he would NEVER be able to get in a word edgewise, so he just listens. If you let her talk long enough, she’ll talk herself Into anything. Frasier said when he first went to see her about getting a room for ns, she right off told him “No” and he said he just stood there for an hour she had talked herself into giving us a room when I got here, and he hadn’t said another word. I wouldn’t -have believed that before I met her, but I do now. We are supposed to move to morrow and I will be glad to get In our apartment. I am tired of eating out because about the only decent thing you can get in these eating places up here is hamburgers. You’ve never seen the like—people up here just live on hamburgers, onions and root beer. I can go along with the hamburgers and onions, but the root beer is too much for me. Guess I’d better stop now and see if I can find something to do. Fasier and I think about Gildercrest and Footage-on-the- Lake all the time. While we were having breakfast yester day, Frasier suddenly said “is the sun shinning at Gildercrest?” I asked him what he was j talking about, and he said “well, that’s where you were.” I was, too! Mentally, at least Frasier says he can tell when I get that Gildercrest look in my eyes. Well, it won’t be TOO long till we are back down there. Write when you feel like it— we’d love to hear from you. Give our love to all.
