Front: 54 Drive-Inn Café, Liberal, Kansas

Back: Specializing in steaks, chicken and malts, the 54 Drive-Inn café in Liberal, Kansas, is one of the outstanding dining spots on U.S. Highway 54. Mr. & Mrs. George Nelson, Owners. Handwritten: Dear Mom, Pop & George Sunday Just pulled up in front of the post office. Had a very nice trip. We are all just fine. Ate breakfast in Guyman, Okla., lunch in Santa Rosa. It is sure hot and dry here - just good old Albuq. weather. We didn't have a minutes trouble. Sure hope this finds you all fine and dandy. We must get home and get the chickens in the box. We sure had a nice time with you; it was a real vacation. Thanks for everything. More later. On home now. Love, Us 4 | Mr. & Mrs. G. W. Fisher, Route #3, Paola, Kansas
