1969 Catherine's Bike Trip Postcards -June 20-28

Catherine and friends from "K" College did a bicycle trip the week before summer school started in June 1969.


6/20 [1969]
Hi!  I'm in Kendall, Mich.  There are 5 of us -- Debby, Doug Faulkner, Paul Hunter and Bruce Morgan.  Odometer is up to 21.6 miles.  Hope to make it to the lake by tomorrow.  I'm not sure if there is a post office here so I may have trouble mailing this.
Love, Catherine

Hi!  Just finished a real Saga breakfast.  We stayed here at Hope College last night.  We've gone 85.7 miles.  The weather hasn't been too great.  Saturday night we slept out by the lake about 3 miles north of South Haven.  We looked around Saugatuck yesterday, too.  Today we're heading North again. 
Love, Catherine

Hi!  The weather is still blah!  Today we head east or south at least back in the general direction of K'zoo.  We've gone 136 miles.
Love, Catherine
