First want to state that we mo-
tored here through the country that
we might view the farms, etc. We
saw lots of nice country homes with
their beautiful yards of flowers in
bloom and pretty pot plants on the
porches. Most every body that is
personally acquainted with me
knows how we'll / love the plants
and natures beauty.
| found several fine plants grow
ing in the yard at the place we have
| rented; a large hydranga monthly
roses and the l running rose.
brought with me several pot plants
that reached here all right except
one very large begonia that got
broken up pretty bad.

seem to be very generous and kind
hearted. They don't seem like stran
