Black-and-white view of the half-timbered Ring O' Bells Hotel on a curving cobbled street in West Kirby, with trees and stone walls framing the building. The timbered front and old village lane belong to West Kirby's older core, a cluster of inns and cottages that survived as the Wirral town expanded in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Dear Mary:
Am having a wonderful
vacation, but how time flies.
Spent one week at Shore, two days
at this place, one week in Paris,
went up Eiffel Tower + Arc de
Triomphe, there were wonderful
views for the top of these buildings.
Went to Opera House + saw
fine Opera. It's lovely to be back
with friends & have sisters once
again. See you soon.
