Salt Lake City, Utah: July 20, 1930





My sweet Georgi

Today has just been another one of those blue, lonely Sundays where I spend the whole day thinking of you. But George, won’t it be wonderful when we meet. Your sweet letter just thrilled me to tears and I am looking forward to “Springtime in the Rockies” when I can have you for my own, and that is where all my thoughts have turned—in making a sweet home for you, cause I want to see you happy.

I’m glad dear you’re making so good with your work, and I’m just as proud, even prouder, of you than your boss is. That is one thing I have always admired of you, you make good what you start & do your best.

I had kind of an exciting afternoon today. Dad let me drive the car. This is rather unusual for dad but I think he quite liked his ride. No one was hurt & neither was the car.

Herbert is going to California right away. He is going to Washington first. I gave him your address and told him to call on you if he passes through Berkeley. I think you’ll recognize him.

I think your plans are sure keen. Even though it will mean me giving up home and my friends here, this is not too much when I see what I am going to get for it. George I want to be your’s & your’s alone, and I want you for mine alone. About going out with other fellows—I don’t. I love to dance but I go alone & come home alone, but I always have a girl friend with who does the same.=I’m saving ALL my love for you.

I am content to be married by a bishop. I guess you know of one there. When we go for a visit where there is a Temple we’ll be married there later, don’t you think so?

I’m all thrilled about seeing you. Can you tell now about when next spring we’ll meet, never more to part? It seems unjust for you my most loved, to be so far off and me left here with but memories. But that is just what is going to make us dearer to each other, and surely we’ll meet soon.

Good night dear one. Write soon, as your letters are a part of my life. Enfolded in my arms with your eyes gazing in mine, I kiss you goodnight.
