What Wilkie's Up To

Y'all probably remember me telling y'all about my cousin Wilkie Whitmire and when he were in the hospital in New Orleans. I ain't said too much about him and his wife Betty Faye lately, but that ain't because I forgot 'em. They is still some of my favorite peoples. Lately they has been staying out in Arizona with their youngest daughter, Maylene, and her husband, Delano. Delano were named after our president

Frankie Roosevelt. The place in Arizona where they are staying in called Tucson. You may have seen it from cowboy picture shows. Delano went out there because he had asthma and all kinds of plant allergies. From what I hear notw peoples has transplanted almost ever kind of plant and flower that will grow there. And since it don't rain too much the allergy stuff just floats around in the air for months. That's what I hear, but I ain't too sure.
