Niagara Falls, New York
My Dearest Mary,
Today, Percival and I took a brief respite from our travels to visit the magnificent Niagara Falls. It felt only right to take in such a sight before continuing our journey through the ballparks of New York State. Words can hardly do justice to the beauty before us—the cascading waters tumbling with such force, yet bringing a sense of tranquility as the sound of the rushing river filled the air. Standing there, watching the mist rise and feeling the cool spray upon my face, I found a renewed energy for the road ahead.
As much as I am enjoying this journey, my heart longs for home, and I take comfort in knowing that in just a few days—on June 6th—I will be back in your arms, if only for a short while. We have three more games to see before then, and after our brief return home, our travels will take us into Canada.
I miss you dearly, Mary, and I count the days until I see you again.
With all my love,
Edwin
