Dear Pen,

     The Autumn colouring in Canada is just glorious, just hundreds of miles of trees like this.  It's really cold here, 25f when I arrived yesterday afternoon.  It goes as low as 45f below zero!!

Assiniboia Downs, the home of racing in Manitobo, is located on the Perimeter Highway a few miles west of Winnipeg.  Here, a long racing seasons is held back summer, with thoroughbreds from all over North America taking part.

Dear Tim,

     This is a dull card, I've been into 5 shops this morning, trying to get something better but no luck.

     With love, Nan.

Dear Mer,

     This animal is on all the number plates of cars in the Province of Manitoba.
 Canada has Provinces instead of State.

     Love Nan

Dear Fish (Nick),

     I'd love to ride in a train like this, wouldn't you?  I guess, though, that the Greyhound bus gets places sooner than the train would.

     Love Nan
