I got sea sick while Dave reeled it in. 6' 11" [2.1 meters long]. We won over $400 profit at Gulfstream. Doing lots of eating and drinking. It has been rather rainy but warm.

Postcard Diaspora: Salt Lake City, 1952



 

Postcard mailed from Salt Lake City, Utah, to Johnson City, New York, on Friday, May 23, 1952. Message: What a beautiful place. I couldn't find a card with the snow capped Rockies on it except this one, looking through the arch. To me, it was the most beautiful of all. You ride along under them & feel like a tiny ant they are so tall and cold looking. More later. Mary & Bob. I'll mail this to the Johnson City address today.
