Hey Chuck,
Whazzup? Haven't heard from you in a while but you are probably pretty busy 
with the boys and all of their ball    games and other activities.
Have you worked any DX? I know the band has been in the sewer lately but 
have picked up a few islands in the last week or so since it's been too hot 
to work outside.
Let me know how you are doing, ok.

    cu es dx
