 FOUR INDIAN MAIDS

Dec 1 [1956]


Dear Irene -- We are enjoying our trip very much.  Uncle Johnnie & Bob went swimming today.  It was a nice heated pool.  The sun is real warm, feels like summer.  Maybe someday you will come down this way for a trip, but I don't think you would want to live here. (I am writing in the car)  Hope you like the picture of the Indian Maids.  Love,  Uncle John, Auntie Alice, Bob & Nancy




LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA

Looking west along Ocean Boulevard toward the Central Business and Hotel District.  In the distance are Wilmington and the Palos Verdes Hills on the left; storage tanks of oil refineries are seen at the far right.
