Hello.
Patricia.
Hello.
Daddy?
Hi, Tricia.
How are you?
Well, are you feeling any better today?
Sure, I really am.
Good.
It's pretty cold up here, so... Dewey said it was snowing.
Yeah, it's flurries.
I just went out for a walk by myself.
Yeah, I went out with the dog.
I went out with King.
Yeah, but it's pretty cool, pretty cold.
But I like Camp David when it's that way, don't you?
Well, I'd like it if there were snow on the ground, frankly, but it's a little hard to walk.
Have you been in the pool yet?
No, I'm going.
I'm going to go about 4 o'clock, though.
Oh, good, good.
I hope everybody will go in.
Then we're going to eat something about 5.30 and have sea movie, and they're going to go back.
We'll probably come back, too.
Oh, I thought you might stay an extra day to work on your things.
Well, I might, but I don't know.
I think I've got to...
I'm just making some notes, and I think I have to see some people tomorrow.
So it's probably one of those times I can't stay.
I was really thinking about coming up there.
I guess I might come up and spend about...
I don't know whether we'd just come up on a Friday and say stay over one day like we were talking about.
Sure, that would be great.
Yeah.
That would be terrific.
When do you think it will be?
I think we'll probably be moving in about the middle of April.
Middle of April.
So why don't you come up in May?
You think you'll move in the middle of April?
Uh-huh.
So it would be beautiful there in May.
Yeah.
That would be great.
Yeah, the spring there is just pretty nice.
It can really be pretty.
Yeah.
Unless you just keep the streets clean.
Oh, gosh.
We'll see.
All right, well.
Okay, sweetie.
All right, now you just take care.
I'm a little saucy when I get back.
Okay.
You know, nothing's going to get you down.
No.
Okay, sweetie.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
