On The Road Again

April 29, 1969

Dear Daddy,
The Colorado mountains were a trip. The house where we crashed at was so cool. A real mountain cabin. The folks who we stayed with were artists. They make money by selling tie dyed t-shirts. They gave us each one. Too cool. We are in Utah now.
It's very hot and it looks like the moon. I am tripping out over the landscape. I can't wait to get to California to see the ocean. I am not so sure about sleeping under the stars tonight. The desert is kinda freaky. But, don't worry, I am ok. I really need a shower. Well Daddy, gotta go now, I will write next week.
Be cool,
Peace and love,
Joyce

California Here I Come!

April 23,1969

Dear Daddy,
I saw the mountains! I can't believe how beautiful the Rockies are. It just blows me away! We hooked up with some people who live in a cabin up in the mountains and will be crashing with them for awhile. I can't wait to take a bath in a cold mountain stream! Anyway, the ride we got was speeding and the cops pulled us over. We freaked out because Jimmy and Tommy are evading the draft. (Did I tell you that?)
Anyway, we were paranoid of an ID check. Well, it didn't happen, and all is well.
California is getting closer, but I want to hang in the mountains for awhile. Don't worry, everything is cool. I will write you again soon.
Love and Peace,
Joyce
