Dear Stewart:



I expect to go to Vernal to day for the first time for over four months so will send you a few lines.  We have been having a protracted period of bad weather and almost impassable roads since February but not it is getting so that one can get around a little.  A man came on horseback from Craig a few days ago.  He thinks with good weather the roads in that direction ought to be pretty good in a couple of weeks.  I will try to keep track of the matter and when reports are good will probably go and investigate.



It has become necessary for me to have a little change so I hope to get out in the field for a few days and get a rest from indoor work.  I probably will be able to get some interesting things.  I will probably write again soon.



Though I have urged the necessity of doing nothing has been done to protect the quarry against vandalsim only to depend on me.  I said two or three months ago that I would see to it until there was time to appoint somone but that did not mean so great a length of time.
