Letters and vultures

That's lovely and a bit of a relief, because (as you know) I find it difficult in letters to omit mention of the weather, the behavior of birds at the feeder, and the plumber's attitude as he repairs a leaky bathtub faucet. But I managed, mostly, in the one that's one its way to you.
