Jacksonville Beach.
Saturday Night.
My Dear Sweetheart,
This has been the hottest day I have experienced in Florida, and while I do not know what the temperature registered, no doubt it was the effect of the high humidity. It was a pretty busy day for me in Jax and perhaps I felt it more. It is quite a bit cooler tonight and as usual everyone will sleep well. There was quite a crowd in the surf before dinner and until now 10 PM.
Tomorrow and Monday (Labor Day) will bring big crowds down here, and too, they have added attractions in the way of auto races.
While in Jax today I made a reservation for Dr. White which would mean that he leaves there Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock. His niece will be at Jax Wednesday en route to Daytona where she is to teach.
They are boosting real estate here at the beach and some predict that this winter the place will have an open season just the same as they have down the state. I can hardly believe this, though there probably will be some to spend the whole winter here besides the residents.
I love you, Sweetheart, and I’d write a longer letter this time, but regardless of how long I made it I could not tell you how much.
With a sweet goodnight,
Your,
Walter.
