Dear Doris:

We spent the night here where we could see the Cape Fear lighthouse shining. Had fresh fish, or rather 3, for supper. Dad had a wonderful collecting day yesterday. Composites at their height and fields colorful with golden and purple flowers. We drove to within 10 m. of Myrtle B. but didn't go as it was growing late. Today will start n. along Carolina beaches to Norfolk, maybe reach Elizabeth City or only New Berne if collecting is good. Will get an early start. Very mild here Our house full of early rising fishermen (by avocation) and the café (Mack's) across keeps open all night for their accomodation. Wish you were along.

Love Mother
