Scope and content

Wonders where FH and Barbara will celebrate Christmas. They can only have a quiet time, with their family far away. Was glad to read of their trip to Scotland, and they are interested in the new book about ice ages. Donald's eye is adjusting very well, and he has new glasses. He has regained his driver's license. He 'seems as active as ever (at 84) and delights in dropping trees and sawing them up'. Still works in the archives on a regular schedule. They travel little now and no longer drive at night. Charles visited recently. Being a three-time grandfather doesn't seem to have changed him.
