Just for the fun of it I thought I'd send you this Post Office. How would you like to work out of this P.O.? It really is pretty. I'll tell you like I told Betty, I don't know when we will get home, but we are definitely on our way back! 500 miles from Abbeville! Beautiful country up here but there doesn't seem to be any fish! Love, & see you soon. Louise. To: Mr. & Mrs. L.E. Beauford. Route # 3, Box 83. Abbeville, S.C.
