Post Card Saturday!


So here we are again - Post Card Saturday! The best day of the week! Haha - maybe, guess it depends on your week and weekend, right?

But here is the next in the series.between May and Elizabeth. These actually go over the New Year, with some gaps in time, as well as May traveling some longer distances. None of these are from Connecticut, either. I have no idea who she was traveling with, but there is a mention of a "we" in the second card. Most of what she refers to, though, is all "I", and no one else. How would I even go about researching this, do you suppose? It would be so amazing to know more. Or at least I think so, lol.

Anyway - onward! here's the detail of what the card is:



The back...












And the message that says:

Wednesday, Sept. 12
This a a huge university -- they are piling in to Syracuse every day, registering, although classes do not start until the 24th.
Weather continues perfect.
May

Our next card was then sent from Washington, DC. That's probably a bit longer of a drive than those all over CT, lol.

Here's the close up of the name. Sorry the "D.C." is cut off. I couldn't get all the text *and* have it not be incredibly blurry.

The back







And the message  :)

Tuesday, Dec. 18th [Note: this is *4* months later!]
Her I am! Do not think we will come to Washington. This is the hotel where I am stopping.
May

And then hit "Read More" to, you know, read more, ha ha!




Now May is in Georgia

The detail of the hotel name in Macon.

The back







And the message:

Tuesday, Jan 21
Just arrived in Macon and registered here. Will not know until to-morrow whether I will stay.
May

So there you have it - again, she only mentions "I", no one else. No mention of what she's doing, why she's there, where she's been in between... So there must be more cards and letters somewhere, right? I want to know, and don't have a lot of ideas how to find out, lol. Suggestions? 

More of these next week!

:)
