Connecticut River Valley Tobacco Farm postcard -mailed 1968

7/19/68
Hi! I still have 11 miles to Springfield, but I think I'll make it! I bought an egg & 2 pieces bread from Pratt's (they run hostel) for breakfast for 10¢. I had to fix it myself though. It cost a dollar for the night. The house was built in 1750 and the swimming pool (1927) is fed by a brook. I saw lots of the covered tobacco yesterday. On the way to the Hostel I passed the Newgate Prison where they kept Tories and spies during the Revolution. It is very overcast today. Mark the map – Rt. 57 from Granville to Southwick (that's where I am now!)
Love, Catherine
