Dear Mother,
I hope this finds you feeling well. We're getting some relief from the hot weather. It's really pleasant. Susie and her family were here for three weeks. We had a wonderful visit but the temperature was 108 and 107 for most of the last week she was here. It made it feel cool shen the temperature dropped to 100.
Peter received his mission call to the Montreal, Canada mission. He goes into the MTC in Provo on Oct. 13. His job at the cantaloupe shed runs through September. He's naturally excited about it. He will learn the discussions in French since this is the French speaking part of Canada.
The other kids all started school last Monday. Charlie is playing football again and is real excited about that.
Megan is in her junior year. Charlie is in the eighth grade and Sam is in the fifth.
Our stake is putting on a musical program called "From Cumorah's hill" for all the mutual aged kids. They have a practice at the stake center every Sunday night. It gives them an opportunity to mingle with all of the LDS kids in the stake once a week. I think it is a wonderful idea. Charlie and Megan are the only LDS kids in their schools. It really means alot to them.
The aphids have about destroyed our melon patch. So we won't get much more out of it. That kind of makes us sad. But at least we got about thirty melons before it happened.
I have Sam's pig fenced into an area that I've been wanting to garden for sometime. The sod was too tough for a rototiller and the area was too small and awkward to get a big tractor into. But the pig is doing a wonderful job of rototilling it for me.
That's about all of the news for this time. I love you.
Your son Robert, Janet and family.
