very hot and dry We all thought that if as hot
in California (that where going) we would
not care to stay there long. :*S@--s - >--.*~
That evening when reached the northern part or
the s'orange state," found that it. very much
cooler than had been Nevada but great was our
the next morning when arrived at Oak
land Ca to find that instead of being very hot as the
day previous had been it cool as some OF our
November days here in Minnesota Later we took the
ferry the bay to San Francisco. 1t was still
colder there than at Oakland and we saw women
Golden Gate Park. We left the city that evening for
Los Angeles, the f'city of the angels and when we
arrived there the next morning found as much alHer

as there is between and winter It surprised
me that there wasYsuch difference in shortya dis.
