Dart’s entries today are two postcards from Lake Sunapee. One shows a full moon over the lake islands, and the other is an aerial view from the southern point of the lake. It’s a beautiful place, resplendent in its fall colors. He asks “Can it be any more beautiful in the spring or summer?”

So glad he shares Dot’s appreciation of this special place.

Dot’s letter is even briefer than two postcards. She’s terribly busy but didn’t want to break her writing streak. Tomorrow she’ll devote to ironing, studying and wrtiting to him.

She was waiting for a phone call from Greenwich tonight, still hoping he’d be able to visit her family. Sadly, no phone call has come.

Her last line may be directed as much to herself as to her fiance’: “Cheer up! The best is yet to come.”
