Mobile, Alabama March 27,, 1947 The Lehi Sun Lehi, Utah Dear Editor: Please accept our thanks for the newsy contribution which you are making weeWy by sending us the Lehi Sim. ' It is peculiar how we hang on every word from home for some detail may slip our notice. We are continually reading between the lines and putting our own private interpretation upon the news from your ptper. In fact . the stores whose ads you run, would be benefited bene-fited by our added interest were we close enough to patronize them. Thanks for your thoughtfulness. Our apartment faces the seventeen seven-teen mile Azoka trail of Mobile. As I look from our window, the parked area in the center of the wide Spring Hill Ave. is really a-blaze a-blaze with Azaleas, ranging in color col-or from the original Mobile Wat-ermellon Wat-ermellon Pink to a light lavender. The bushes are fifteen feet in diameter, dia-meter, spaced ten feet apart and about five ' feet high. The bush seems to arrange its blossoms to completely fill in the entire sur face of the bush with blazing beau ty. No spaces or even leaves can now' be seen. This incomparable flower beauty, banked by Live Oak Trees, one hundred fifty feet from tip to tip, covered with long hang ing moss, extends for miles along the streets of this quaint old his toric city of the deep south. Mobile In fact the French brought the or. iginal azaleas with them in 1702 when Mobile was settled by Le Moynes. Surely an enticingly inter esting city. With al of the enthusiasm which I now feel for Mobile, I long for the rugged grandeur of the Wasatch Was-atch and the satisfaction of a deep breath of mountain air. But that is another story, so I must close. Regards to friend3 and many thanks. ' Mr. and Mrs. D. K.
