Ocean City, New Jersey Postcard ~~ Postmarked July 30, 1979


Grandma sent me this postcard when she went with a neighbor family to Ocean City, NJ for a week.  

She wrote:

This is not like Atlantic City but I'm enjoying it.  I can't walk the boardwalk much though - get pain in my chest.  So tonight they went up & I just went for postcards & came back.  Write me at home.  

Love,

Grandma

Dear Shelby,

Hello!  I've been transferred to Germany now.  Like I've promised, I send you my address.  This is a very small city in the near of Koln. I will tell you more about the situation in a letter. 

Much love,

Rudy

This hotel is nice - ice skating & all.  Our room has stove, fridge & sink.  We ate Maryland crab cakes last night.  They were delicious.  They have a "kiosk" lounge here.  Will write more later.  Love, Grandma
