Description

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 Love Sweetie Podcast is currently in its second season - this is episode 53.

This episode features two letters - one from February 1947 and the other from April 1947.  In both letters, Sweetie describes her home life in Norwood, Pennsylvania.  There is some information regarding medicine at this time, and Sweetie also has an appointment with an eye doctor to check her prescription glasses.  She mentions some of the weather that spring and is generally checking in with her family about various matters.  

At the end of the episode, we review some photos that Sweetie took that spring of her house and neighborhood at Love Lane, and we see pictures of Lewis in his snowsuit, with his neighbor, Johnny, and Johnny's mother, Dot.
