Dear Mamma: How are you? We are fine. Have been quite busy even it is vacation as I attended the State Teacher Association at Seattle. I thought to write you today but have company so will send this view of Renton. This is how the west end looks from the coal mines. I have some other views that I will send soon. What is doing at G.V.? I will be quite busy for awhile now as we are trying to start the new school building and school opens Tuesday. I must close. Write soon. With Love, [unreadable; 'Louise?' 'Lowis?'].
