"Utica, Tues.- We have just finished breakfast + now are going to pack up and start to wash- There is no Blue Book Route from here to Wash + we don't expect to find very good roads but it is only about 45 miles so guess we can stand it. Beautiful morning, Nelle.", reads the note written on the back.
