Dear Friend,
All the snow we have seen is on Mt. Lowe. Ralph threw a snowball for each of his schoolmates while we were there. We have bought a ranch 4 mi. from Santa Ana.
From Tustin. Ralph and I leave for the East next week via San Francisco. Expect to reach Delhi, Delaware Co., New York, March 14th. Hope you will come to see us. We will return about September 1st. We have made our home in California.
