The Family Letter Not Sent - Take 4

This is too long for Non mormon childless Cat People.  Needs to be shorter.

 Tom and Julia started out the year in Springfield, MA.  They visited several attractions there including the Springfield Arsenal which was commissioned by Washington in the Revolutionary War and the Dr. Suess Museum.  They enjoyed eating at a local German restaurant that was very authentic looking.  

Julia got a job with the Massachusetts Historical Society and was very much looking forward to it.  Tom and Julia took an hour commute back and forth driving there even though it was very hard to ensure that she could get it; and sold their house at a loss.  Fringe benefit, Tom didn't have to mow the lawn any more (the Grass is mean!). Salem had many wonderful restaurants of all kinds and descriptions that they loved to eat at and many grocery stores that they could also cook meals together and eat.

We all got covid because religious inlaws not the immediate inlaws I won't name went on a cruise and didn't wear masks.  Fortunately we were vaccinated.  I mean only fucking idiots like nazis dont like vaccines right? Only fucking idiots like Nazis would hire a worm brained anti vexer murderer to be in charge of the CDC lolol.

Once they had moved to Salem, Julia's family visited.  They had a nice visit to the USS Constitution.  They ate at a downtown restaurant in Boston that served fancy hot dogs and baked beans, an oyster bar (Tom had to work that day), and a lovely fish restaurant with a view of the sea.  Unfortunately, the whole family got sick from Covid but they got better

Tom and Julia are considering the fantastic restaurant opportunities in Switzerland where they can eat all of the Strudel and Weinersnitzels and Chocolate and Pretzels that they could want to eat, just like the German Restaurant in Springfield.  Isn't like funny sometimes how it works in a full circle?

Tom wrote things but none of it was really about food.   What a wasted opportunity.

Tom and Julia were alive in 2024.  They breathed, ate and drank.  They are still not dead.

Actual likely edit for final result: Tom and Julia were not able to send a letter this year but are doing well and send their love.
