This is where we are spending the day- Dear Auntie Dolson:- Wish you were all along with us here at the beach. We are having such a nice time and the beach is so pretty. You must all be good while I am gone. Am going for a launch ride across the bay now. A pat for happy and love to yourself, From Ruth.
