I started writing on this postcard last summer, but I never finished. What do you think? Is that tree still there? I may come down this weekend. What do you think? I want you to come visit soon - I need you to help me paint a picture on my wall. I wish I was the one to take all of those Art classes in High School. Take care, Love, David"
