Last week, I found Sylvie in tears watching the images from Houston. All of her letters from blog readers were mistakenly destroyed and she was very worried about the friends from Texas who had been writing to her, she wanted to hear from them and know they were all right.

She asked me to post a message on the blog asking her friends to write when they could. She knows the post offices are still down in some areas, and it might take awhile. But today she told me that she had gotten a number of letters from Texas already, she said she was very happy to get them and wanted to answer them.

She hasn’t heart yet from a number of her friends from Texas – I didn’t know she was getting so much mail from Texas – but i am sure she will in time. The letters she is getting have made her very happy and relieved. Thanks. I know you have a lot of things to do.

You can write her c/o Sylvie, The Mansion, 11 S. Union Avenue, Cambridge, N.Y., 12816.
