The country around here is the best and prettiest we have yet seen in the States and the weather is all one could wish for. We have worn our rain coats once since landing from the boat.

From here we go to Chicago for 2 days then to Detroit to Buffallo, Niagara and New York and then to England until about Xmas. Through France home. That is as far as we know at present. But you will hear as soon as we leave the States.

Well I think this is all the news for this time so I will close. Hope Mother's cold is now quite O.K. and that everyone at home is well.

I know I am.

Love to all from

Gordon.
