Dear Bobby & Autumn
How are you? I am fair - a lot to do - I stay exhausted at all times!
Bobby - I have you down on Saturday - I'll pay you $100 & $50 on expense - maybe $60 for expenses - I'll find you a place to stay - Nannies - I guess. I stay overflowed!
I hope you work, holding! I'm afraid grant money - will fade, away.
I go on a tour with John McCutcheon in the late fall. Dale got so - he fills in (at times) He has an unbelievable voice, so beautiful - It makes chills - run over you. I don't push but he's stepping in - He's helped me on a few concerts.
Come on Friday - If you can - you are always welcome, you know - Love,
Janette -
Joe & I go to Japan in July - to sing!
I'll send you - more ado. - later -
