California travel notes plus hillside garden scenes and locals
A travel letter recounts a California trip from Pasadena to Pomona with night views of Los Angeles lights, Lake Inspiration, and the Mount Wilson Observatory. It describes Busehe’s garden, a 83 acre world museum of plants, and social calls with J E Ayres and Mrs Armstrong. The narrative ends with reflections on climate, hospitality, and the nearing end of the stay.
