drews. to make his home at Santa
Cruz. Cal. AS the Andrews family
had been residents on Lincoln Park
for more than 80 years and have a
host OF friends here. the letter is pub

it will be read with great interest by
former neighbors and associates. Mr.

shadow on the trip was the thought
of having left our many good friends
and old associations behind us. AS l

dry. rugged mountains that l had
looked upon for SO many years. and
into which I had made SO many pleas
ant little excursions. realized as
never before how much they had
come to mean TO me. We have met
many pleasant and kind people here,
as one does almost anywhere in this
old world. and. also. seen much that
is beautiful and interesting.
Santa Cruz is a prettily-situated
town OF about $4,000 Inhabitants. The
country about II is hiliy. Many OF
the residences OF the place are built
on the hills. TIE ride through the
Santa Cruz mountains on the way
here from San Francisco is very pic
turesque. The mountains are not as
high as those in Colorado. but they
are covered with verdure. Growing
on them are tall redwood and ecua-
lyptus trees and in many places at
their base there is a tangle Of bushes
and ferns,

judge the cost OF living to be very
much the same here as at Canon City.
The only kind OF fruit that appears
to be cheaper here Ia blackbe-ries.
The vines grow very rank and bear
abundantly. and many people in town
have them in their yards.
"Of course there are many beauti-
fil flowers. Often one sees between
yards hedges OF geraniums or pink
rambler roses. which are a mass of
bloom. F>ichias grow to be trees
seyen or eight feet tall and hydrangia
bushes as high as ones head. There
are many beautiful roses and other
Towering plants, but. perhaps, they
are not appreciated any more than
smaller and less. snowy flowers in the
East.
Among pleasant scenes the
thoughts OF all the, family often turn
to Colorado and the good friends we
had there
