big tray of cherry pie and we really went to town on it. That's my favorite. The wind has been blowing something awful today. Even this late at night the dust is going by in clouds. Just about everything in the tent has a layer of dust on it, excluding myself of course for I just got back from showering a while ago. Lord, but that water was cold tonight. No new rumors have come to us today about when we will be going home. What I wouldn't give to get home this fall or winter. The new is certainly good, but things are sure moving too slow to suit me. Honey, how wonderful it would be if the war were to end real soon.
