Post Card Saturday! On Saturday!

How exciting! It's time once again for Post Card Saturday! And not just any postcard Saturday, but the next in our May / Elizabeth installment. Three postcards, all in the same month (June), all in the same year (1934), same state (Massachusetts), different cities. Still no closer to knowing the relationship between these two, or what May was doing tooling around all over. But it's fun to speculate, no?


So of course, the top one is the first card of the evening, from Northhampton, as this detail shows.


Here's the back. 








And the message (Bless May for having such good handwriting! Lol)
Saturday, June 9th
Isn't this beautiful? This place is full of spots of beauty -- sure am getting to know this section of New England!
May


This next one is dated 11 days later. Was May busy? The message itself is fairly short, so maybe so. Who knows, but here's the card.


The detail, from Holyoke this time.


The back.





And the Message:
Wednesday, June 20th
Isn't this lovely? When you drive in the residential district of Holyoke it is very beautiful.
Some magnificent estates.
May

And click Read More to see tonight's last...


This one is dated the next day, so maybe May was trying to catch up. Again, it's fun to postulate, but it might be even cooler to know for sure, don't you think? 


Here's the detail - from Westfield.




The back in its entirety






And the final message for this episode:

Thursday, June 21st
Am leaving Holyoke right after lunch. Going to Springfield. It is a beautiful day, and getting quite warm.
May

So there you have it. By all means, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this series of postcards. I enjoy them as they are, but I'll admit that my curiosity is piqued more each week I put them here.
