This scene was taken

after we left Wellton Ariz.

Feb. [crossed out] Jan 27 - '26

The shacks are the homes

of the natives.

Then is a mine in the side

of a moutain nearby, and

the Southern Pacific spur

from Phoenix runs just

back of the shacks.

In this mountain background

we found lots of flowers and

all along the roadway from

this point on we saw more and

more flowers on the desert.

We picked a big boquet of

wild verbenas and a variety

of other blossoms new to all

of us. The second night

was spent at El Cantro, Cal

the largest town in Imperial

Valley. We rode in dust nearly

all day, into Eve - and even in the nice

Valley city the air was full of dust

none of us enjoyed this feature and

especially Charley disliked it.

Flowers - flowers - flowers all the way.
