Dearest Mother and Daddy,

Here we are this far on our way -- had a lovely trip down the coast today on U.S. Highway 101. Will go on to P.U.C. [Pacific Union College, an Angwein, California] tomorrow and then to Mt. View Friday. Rachel is with us as far as San Jose.

Take good care of yourselves.

Much love,

Dearest Mother and Daddy,

Here we are staying tonight with Fern Millard's mother and sister. We had a lovely trip down the Redwood Highway today. Tomorrow we'll be going on to Lloyd's [Lloyd was my mom's sisters' widower.] -- Are having a lovely trip.

Incidentally, when you make bread, how big is your "hunk" of shortening? I've forgotten.

Take care of yourselves.

Ooodles of love,

Lois Ruth and Benton
