   Dear Jessie – I arrived in C– last night.  We closed the meeting Tuesday so I came home.  Haven't seen the folks yet.  Do not know just when I will be back but will let you know soon.
   I have lots to tell you when I see you again.  Will bring the "ginger cookies" back with me.
   Lovingly,
   Edythe

Cool stamp with Ol' Ben - I wonder if any philatelist could estimate its current price?
Also liked the photo on the card. Thanks, Nate.
