Description 1889-1890; Blair, George E., to Nellie Thatcher Blair. George is writing to Nellie who has gone to Logan to keep house while her mother is in Salt Lake City. George does not like this arrangement. Later Nellie has again gone to her home in Logan to visit, taking her new baby girl. One letter is written from Yellowstone Park and he describes the wonders of the geysers of Fire Hole Basin, Yellowstone Lake, the Falls, Mammoth Hot Springs, and the Great Geyser. This correspondence gives a good picture of social life in Salt Lake City at this period as he goes to the theater, sleighing, bathing at Saltair, etc.
