Carroll Steinbeck letters to parents, January-February, 1944

Carroll Steinbeck to Alfred and Vira Steinbeck Page 3

It sounds like you are getting that farm whipped into shape. I'll bet it looks alot different from what it did when you started.
I'll bet Ken and Marg are going crazy waiting for that term to end. Ken mentions it all the time in his letters. I haven't heard from him for some time. She is probably worried about passing so they can get half way settled down.
I was sure glad to hear we beat Sigourney. That description did sound like old times mom. I suppose they couldn't gripe about Kermit and me though. 
Ken told me to look in "Life" to. I thought sure they had been taking pictures at camp Hood and he was in one of them. I suppose you must have thought something like that to do all that running around looking for it.
We finally got a barber back at the Union. I got a hair cut the day after I got back from furlough and one since then. Those are the only times I've had a hair cut for two months
