Hey Art,

I knew I'd miss it. That's why I wrote early. One hell of a party. Where did Roy Harris come from? Did you tell him he's not allowed to write from Wales? Or sing about Whales? He really should stick to Malarkey or sailboats or something.

Whaddijaget? Huh? Anything good? Huh? For my last birthday, I got some Dobro thumbpicks. Had to go to Maine for 'em. There aren't any in Vermont.

Here's good luck to the pint pot and also to you, sir.

Wally
