Envelope 5/1


Here is the front of the envelope for mailing the first Mole of Round 5 to Steve
This is for the Moleskine exchange that I participate in.

I am going to have hip replacement surgery January 31.  and here is the back of the envelope.  I hope to mail tomorrow because I will be in the hospital Feb 1, and if not tomorrow, very soon.  This completes my packet for this mailing, I believe.
