Hey Baby Bro,
Karen Blake, huh? You really like her better than Vanessa? If so, I guess that's okay. I mean, I think Vanessa is a wonderful person, but if you don't love her, then you should end it. Not writing to her isn't a solution; it's another problem. She deserves to know the truth.
Don't worry about not having helped paint the house. Mom has decided she wants the inside done as well, so there will be plenty for you to do when you get home.
Phil never did say what his invention was but he did say he hadn't gotten all the bugs worked out yet. Maybe by summer's end he will have the gadget ready. As for Darren Cook, we haven't heard anything. Dad thinks someone at the senator's office may be involved. It definitely sounds like an inside job. So, Dad is sending me in undercover as a gofer. I don't think he is going undercover just yet, though. He said he wanted to try and find Darren first. I think he's planning on looking through his apartment.
And, yes, Dad's sure Cook is innocent. He's known him for a long time and says he would trust Cook with his life. I, on the other hand, am keeping an open mind. He seemed like a nice enough guy, albeit a little strict, but that could have been a facade.
Nope, a postcard won't be okay next time. I'm your brother. You can make time for me. I expect at least a one page letter in return for each letter I send you.
So, tell me about your roommate, Steve. What does he look like? Do you two get along? Who is in charge of the camp? Are they nice or strict? What is the camp like?
Have you had any trouble out of your charges yet? As I recall, when we first started going to summer camp, you always managed to do something to annoy our counselors. Remember when you snuck into Kevin's cabin and put super glue in his shorts? He ripped them off piece by piece. He had polka dotted skin where the shorts remained until someone could get into the nearest town and get some finger nail polish remover.
He was sooo mad. He was grumpy the rest of the summer. It's a good thing you never got caught on that prank. I wonder if any of your kids would do something like that to you?
I'm going to say goodnight now. I am off to DC in the morning. Take care and watch out for your charges!
Love ya,
Frank
