4 May 1943

 

Dear Folks:

Here are the pictures that we took during the hike that I wrote about.  The black and white of the camera does not do justice to the scenery so you will have to imagine the color.  If you have read the book I referred to, you can better visualize what the pictures lack.  We had a great time that day and now that I have a supply of film again, want to go back again soon.

I’m going to the show in a few minutes consequently the hieroglyphics.  The lights are out so early that there is no time after the show.  I will of course write more later but I wanted to get these off tonight.  Had a card from Granny yesterday with pictures of Sammy and Karen.

Well, I’ll cut this short.  There are 22 pictures and let me know if you receive that many.

Love,

Harold Moss Signature
