John Doe 456 Elm Street Othertown, CA 67890

Subject: Let's Catch Up!

Dear John,

Hey, how's it going? It feels like it's been ages since we last hung out. I've been thinking about you and wanted to reach out to see how life has been treating you.

I've been keeping busy with work and hobbies. I just started a new project at the office and I'm really excited about it. I've also been trying to get back into painting and I've been having a lot of fun with it.

I was thinking it would be great to grab lunch or coffee sometime soon.

Take care and talk to you soon!

Best, Emily
