Description

Postcard depicting shrimp boats docked in the Key West Bight. The description on the verso reads, 'Shrimp Boats at Key West, Florida'. The message on the verso reads, 'Dear Grandmother, It seems silly for me to be writing you from Key West, but here I am doing laundry in that lovely laundromat. I can think of things I rather be doing but it's better be in Key West doing laundry than not in Key West at all. And now I'll say the thing I should have said long ago; Thank you for inviting me to the cottage. I had a wonderful time. Love, Suzan'. The card is addressed to Mrs. E.R. Frazier, Oak Bluff, Huron, Ohio, and is postmarked Key West, August 25, 1967.
