8 September 1937

Dear Jean,

I hope you don't get dizzy following me around the country. Well, you're in High School now, and I hope you like it.

I am away up north now, much closer to Edinburgh than London. It is hilly up here in Yorkshire compared with the rest of England.

I still get letters from Mrs. Culbertson - she evidently thinks you make quite a hit with the boys. How is Bob getting along with your dancing lessons? Or is he any good?

I have been doing big trips all around our sector - learning all the towns, cities, lakes, etc. so that I will be able to identify my position at any time in the air. Went all along the east coast - passed by Scarborough, Flamborough Head, etc. - all summer resorts. The country all looks very beautiful, but they tell me that you see little of it in the winter on account of the fogs.

Mrs. Culbertson wanted me to go down to London last week, but I wasn't able to. Tell Daddy that I could get a month or so off any spring or winter time to stay with him in England if he can ever get over. One can get even six weeks at a time, but I'd never be able to afford a trip back to Canada.

There is a really good sun shining today, and the sky is clear for once.

Well, write soon and tell me how you are doing.

Love Bill
