Episode Synopsis

The Love Sweetie Podcast is a unique historical project that features real letters from Kathryn Frances Demaree Graham a.k.a. "Sweetie" that were written during her lifetime.  These authentic letters are narrated and commented on by the hosts of the show (who give context on what is being discussed).  The letters, as displayed on the screen, have been transcribed based on the original documents - as such, incorrect spellings, typos (especially as Sweetie writes the majority of her letters using a typewriter), and punctuation and other formatting (the use of caps lock for certain words) are authentic to the documents as they were originally written.This episode features one big letter from August 1947, as Sweetie recounts her honeymoon that she takes with her husband, Lew, four years after their wedding.  (As they had been married during World War II, they had not taken a honeymoon at that time.). Sweetie and Lew travel to Canada and visit Niagara Falls, and then go to Toronto.  They return a few days later to Pennsylvania, driving past orchards blooming in the late summer, and Sweetie starts to make plans for the fall of 1947.For more information, please go to www.lovesweetiepodcast.com.
