South Truro, Mass.
(Cape Cod)
July 23, 1930
Dear Chat:
We like it very much here at South Truro and have taken a cottage for the summer. Fine big hills of sand, a desert on a small scale with fine dune formations. A very open almost treeless countryI think you would like it. I have one canvas and am starting another and have a few punk water colors. We have been on the cape since June 15th.
What are you doing yourself?
Jo sends her regards and so do I.
Yours sincerely,
E. Hopper
