Hotel Whitcomb - San Francisco
Last night we were very tired and after a walk around after dinner retired
to bed early as we have a lot to do today fixing up our trip on. We leave
tomorrow morning 7.30am for Los Angeles arriving 7.30pm stay for four
days and then to Grand Canyon for 1 day Colorado Springs 2 days Denver
1 day Ohamaha 3 hours and Rochester to see the Mayo's re Bill. So from
there I will next write to you as we will most likely be there some time
as it is not very large I will have lots of time.
Bill is very well and is enjoying himself but as we have come over for
a special purpose we are not wasting much time reaching our main destination
and after that we will be free to go where we like. We are not doing Yosemite
Valley as it takes four days at the least and we have not the time to
spare.
Of course I am having a great time and as I cannot write at length of
all my doing I am jotting them down in these letter and will talk for
weeks later when I can go into detail.
I am writing to NY today to send our mail to Rochester so we will have
some home news when we arrive.
I have marked our room on the other side of this sheet [see
bottom of this page] so you can see how
we are living. We have a big wardrobe of the variety one walks into and
washbasin etc built in with Hot & Cold water and a bathroom and toilet
right alongside the latter also with H & C water on tap. Of course
we are paying for it.
Well that is all I think for this time. Please ring Tom for me and tell
him I will write from Rochester as time will not permit from here. Give
him any news you think may interest him. Also the office and tell Mr McDonald
I have not forgotten the lads. I will drop Chas a note
[next letter].
Hope you are all well.
Love from
Gordon.
