California Letter Continues From Last Week Travelogue
A travel diary describes vivid scenes from a Pacific coast journey. The writer notes purple and gold mountains near the St Louis Fair, river valleys along the Rio Grande and Eagle Rivers, Utah desert vistas, Great Salt Lake views, and Colorado orchards. They stop at Glenwood Springs, Grand Junction, Reno, San Jose, and Oakland, detailing people, food, irrigation, fruit, and garden life, with impressions of Los Angeles and arrivals of baggage.
