January 13, 1967 Dear Mom and Dad, I guess it's about time that I get around to writing. We had a real nice trip over and ‘Sue was good as gold. She didn’t mind the plane trip over much but doesn’t care about taking off and landing. | Everytime we did she would start whining about going back to see MaMa. You know the noise jets make when they take off, well its just asi bad inside. I think it was the noise that scared her more than anything. [* I really enjoyed the trip from | Avoca to Pittsburgh and we flew under the clouds almost all the way. It certainly was beautiful. At Pitts- | burgh we took a jet to Chicago, where we had an hour lay over. On {the bus to Travis I met a woman | on her way to Okinawa and we had | our supper together. We left Travis at 4 a.m. | it didn’t get light until noon since | we crossed the international date- - | line and there was a difference of fin hours. We stopped in Japan | to Clark Air Base. The flight was | ahead of schedule so Allan wasn’t | at the terminal to meet us. By the | time he arrived I had put Sue in | the dependants lounge and was go- ing through the line to have our passports . checked. When we went to pick up Sue, Allan couldn't get | over how much she had grown. Sue | went right to him but she wasn't | too friendly for ia while. Allan took us to Manila’ for two days and I just couldn’t believe it. Fresh Ground BEEF (Not Hamburger !) 3lbs. —S1.75 59c Ib. Back Mt. Economy Store Carverton Rd.
