Mom,

I'm off to Nashville tomorrow morning before the sun comes up over the mountains. I won't be posting until I get there; at least, I HOPE I can post from my room. From the cost of the thing I should be able to. Anyway, Mom, I've got enough clean underwear and socks and I've packed my good toothbrush. And I'll be wearing clean undies tomorrow so that if I am hit by a car or something you won't be embarassed for me in the Emergency Room. Until later,

Your humble child,
Rapaire
