Dear Cousin, August 12, 1909 We are out on veranda in sunshine. One end is glass and awnings on the sides. People have reclining chairs. I enjoy them and think them good to take rest in. This air is delightful and only wish I could send you some today. The mts seem so near but [?] time left them so bare and brown rocks. We expect to go to Lake Placid some day and would like to go over to Paul Smiths which is very popular and crowded. I am sending a view of a small lake we can see from our veranda. I am anxious to know how the summer is going with you and our friends all. [?] sends love. Lovingly, Cornelia H.H.
