Description
The Southern Pines Hotel in Southern Pines, N.C., boasts a charming light-colored building with dark brick accents, surrounded by lush greenery and a classic car. A faded blue handwritten message on the back reveals a writer’s busy life and a postponed visit. This beautiful postcard, showing muted beige, blue, and green tones, likely dates from the 1910s or 1920s.

My dear,
I intended to see you Thursday. My Grandfather has been quite ill. I intended to go to Kingston, but the weather stormed. I've been so sleepy. P. and I are bad too. I read too much, probably, and have been in bed too. Most all done. I'm making my "Scotch Curtains." I piled on the work Monday. I felt better. I had time to do so much with my life progressing but more to do. I love you all.
