Miss Florence Hepworth lived on “Sycamore Farm” in Jamison, a pretty village in Bucks County of southeast Pennsylvania.

In August of 1929, Florence received a postcard from Bud and Sally.

The postcard was mailed from Bridgton, a town in the Lakes Region of Cumberland County in southeast Maine.

In the early 19th century, this area was home to water-powered mills that produced goods to be shipped by canal to markets in Portland.

In 1883, the town built the “Bridgton and Saco River Railroad” – a link to the national rail network.

The rail connection led to the development of resort accommodations and attractions in Bridgton.

The face of the postcard is a photograph of “Moose Pond and Mt. Pleasant, Bridgton, Maine”.

The placid waters of the pond stretch toward the distant peak.

Some rocks break the surface of the pond, and there appears to be a distant promontory or island.

There are no figures in the scene, although the pond looks like a pleasant place for boating.

The postcard was published by H. R. Dickerman and Son of Taunton, Massachusetts.

This may have been, originally, an uncolored image as the postcard credits the “C. T. American Art Colored” process.

On the reverse, we learn that the travelers are “Having a wonderful time”.

It appears that Bud and Sally may have visited Florence before departing on their journey.

They ask, “Please forgive us for not saying ‘good-bye’, we thought you were asleep.”

The message closes with an expression of “Lots of love”.

There is a squiggly question squeezed onto the bottom –  “how’s G. and Grandpa” which suggests that this is correspondence between family members.

One hopes that Bud and Sally enjoyed the trip and shared many more postcard with Florence.
