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.

So glad to get your postal & hear dear Edith is getting stronger. The heat is intense and you just got away in time. We are entertaining a party of friends to chicken and waffles at Rocky Springs tomorrow in honor of [Lew's] birthday. Your location is superb. Much love, Marie

Wish I could spend a few hours with you today. Just know how invigorating those sea breezes are. Sincerely hope you will regain your accustomed health and strength very soon and that your sojourn by the sea may be even more of a benefit and delight each day than you anticipated. With much love, Marie
