"Travel Notes.

Miss Lovinia V. and Miss Mary C. Gable of Rural avenue, East End, have returned from a two months' visit with their brother Fred Gable of Los Angeles. They also visited Yosemite National Park and the Grand Canyon, Arizona."

NOTE: I believe the name for her aunt in the census is incorrect, as the only aunt she had living at that time was her maternal aunt - Ann Staley.
