Yellowstone Park Association,

Yellowstone Lake Hotel,

July 11, 1896.

Hello Midge,

I [am] getting nearer to you, but still it is a long way home. I hope you are well and not too lonesome, and that the oat crop and peach crop are good and abundant.
Here is a pretty Kalmia I picked yesterday, and a bunch of gentians. I sailed the Yellowstone lake yesterday. I must run. The stage is ready. Goodbye.

[JOHN MUIR]
