Postcard of two women on an ice boat on Alta Lake, a Dog walks nearby. The postcard has text on the front reading "Iceboating, Rainbow Lodge, Alta Lake BC". On the reverse the postcard is addressed to [Jeanne] Tapley at a Seattle address. The text reads "Dearest, will write you a letter next mail. Dad is fine now and is quite chirpy. I'll take him for a trip as soon as I can- I can take him to Victoria and leave him with M while I go on to you and arrange things then he could easily take the boat [over when we are] ready for him. I can't leave here till after Oct 29 [?] [?] duties and [?] [?], Best from Myrtle". Someone has at a later date written 1922 on the postcard, but the postmark is 30 Sep. 1925. Presumably the photograph the postcard was made from was taken in 1922.
