Dear Dorothea! This is - I think - a photo of some ancient Lancaster Co. place, as I found it with other Lanc. cards. Do you recognize it? I a bit envy my family: CSR, CGS + CGS-R today, driving through Lanc. to take CSR to Middlebury for 2 wks French seminar. Hope this catches you before you leave for Detroit and (!) Seattle. I'm staying here cooking for Daddy for the 2 weeks; doubt he wants to budge from here for me to drive him to Lanc. to check on gravestones, tho' I'd like an excuse to go. However, I have a PROJECT for here: write an article on the measles - shots hassle. You'll be hearing more soon, I hope. Thanks for the Memorial Day note. Safe journeying! Love from Margaret.
