Kate in California

By: Jean G
Hawaii, Grade: 8

January 14, 1930

Dear Diary,

We're in a working camp in California! I'm sorry I haven't written lately, but moving is a hard process. Isaac is in the same camp! Heart, heart, heart.
Well, the camp isn't so bad. There isn't much work right now,so I've had time to explore. First of all, we're fortunate enough to have indoor plumbing. (The people in the nearby Mexican camp don't.) The housing is nice too.
In the center of the camp is a raised platform, but I don't know what it's for yet.

I'll write soon,
Kate
