Hey David, How are you? Sara and Martin are going to the mountain this afternoon. They want to go hiking and catch some rays. Do you want to go? I'll give Martin your phone number. He's great and a real pro in the hills. The trip costs peanuts. They've invited me, but I'm wiped out. I'm really steamed at my history teacher. He made me rewrite the paper on World War II. Anyway, I kicked back and relaxed last weekend and didn't do the paper. Now I've got to do it - quick. Well, you can't knock me for trying. I'm going to take a nap before I start cramming for my math test. If I don't do well on this test, I'm a goner. Bye, Greg _________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________
