Handwriting on the back reads, " Dec. 10 - [19]50 Having a very pleasant trip - although I haven't seen a town where I'd like to spend the future - except Long Beach. Have been stopping to look around. In Boulder City and at the Dam. It was fun in Las Vegas to look in and see all the silver dollars. Picture on card is our home for tonight. Weather is very nice (no ocean). Love, Kremer".
