“Yesterday,
I was almost homesick for Kansas because I was certainly sick of Missouri
weather. It rained all week and by
yesterday I had all sorts of aches and pains preparatory to catching a good
cold.... Another thing that I was put out about was Dot going home sick for the
third time this summer, and I’m sure she didn’t feel a bit worse than I
did. But I refuse to stay home as long
as I can navigate.”
--Letter
from my mother, Lutesville, Missouri, to her family, [Hutchinson, Kans.?],
August 15, 1946. She was finishing up
her Methodist Youth caravanning trip in Missouri and preparing to go to the
Methodist Youth national conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
