Then in the Christmas vacation of 1968 the model was finally constructed which took most of the Christmas vacation.
After Christmas in February and March I started to combine the data that I had in a readable form so that I could send the material into RAPRO and the tiny saucer and this to give them to me in Akron.
The plastic in the bottom was breaking because of the famous not supporting it and was afraid that the model would not hold up thanks giving the occasion the year before I made a quick very small mock up of the brighter stars in the very too light year range to see if I could find a pattern using them because I couldn't wait for Christmas I knew it would take the whole Christmas vacation to do the full model.
Dear Richard, thank you very much for your Christmas card.
I had hope to get this tape out to you with my greetings to you before Christmas with Tim Randall on me.
