Dear Johnnie, We arrived yesterday afternoon.  I was sick all the way -- still am, but hope to be better soon.  The children and grandchildren are all well and send their love.  Wish you were here with us.  Flowers blooming in their yard & their tree so pretty.  Hope you are all right.


Love, E.M.

The river affords excellent fishing for salmon, steelhead and cutthroat trout.  It is closed to commercial fishing.  The Nestucca is one of the many beautiful rivers along the Oregon Coast Highway.

Today I feel much better.  The inflamation is letting up in my eyes and ears.  We are both okay otherwise.
