Waning Road Trip - March 1939 - Part One



In March 1939, Jim and Margaret Waning left on a vacation to the Bay area.  They visited the Redwoods and then journeyed south to San Francisco.  This is the first of a series of postcards they sent back to Billy and Nett Waning (Jim's parents). 

This postcard is postmarked 19 March 1939 Orick, California.

"Dear Folks,

We are in Orick tonight.  Just south of Crescent City.  Came coast road.  Saw these trees.  One 32' diameter.  Weather foggy at C. Grove clear and fog in spots down coast.  Be in S.F. tomorrow easy I think.  Car working fine.

Jim & Margaret."
