Please let me know how you and Roscoe5 are. It's been a long time that I've had no address, but we are here at last.
When we left Victoria6, Edith7 was feeling very sick. We were held
up at Lake Louise8 for five days and
had to change our good reservations for whatever we could get. (Old wooden
cars, no "air-conditioning," and awfully dirty. Everything on wheels was
sent from Vancouver9 to carry the
traffic.) Edith had what is called intestinal flu" with high temperature and great exhaustion. A
trained nurse at the Chateau10
was a great hep help.
