女子時隔60年收到自己母親寄的明信片
A northern Indiana woman has finally received a postcard that her mother mailed from Southern California nearly 60 years ago.
印第安納州北部的一名女子，最終收到了她母親大約60年前從南加州寄來的一張明信片。
The postcard was hand-delivered to Sharon Gongwer last week by Christine Combs, the manager of the Quality Inn & Suites in Goshen.
這張明信片是由歌珊地的凱麗套房酒店經理克里斯廷·康姆斯親手交給了雪倫·岡維爾。
Combs had found it tucked away in a drawer while cleaning out cabinets.
康姆斯在清理櫥櫃時發現這張明信片藏在抽屜裏。
The Goshen News reports the postcard dated Aug. 26, 1958, described in penciled print the adventures from her mother's time in Southern California.
《歌珊地新聞》報道稱，這張日期爲1958年8月26日的明信片上面用鉛筆寫着岡維爾母親在南加州時的經歷。
On the front was a photo of palm trees lining a neighborhood street. The postage was 3 cents.
正面是一張棕櫚樹環繞街道的照片。當時的郵費爲3美分。
"I looked at the date and thought, how strange is that?" Combs said.
康姆斯說：“我看了看日期，心想真奇怪啊！”。
It was addressed to "Miss Sharon Ann Gongwer" of nearby Wakarusa, so she looked up the name and found the intended recipient residing at an assisted living center near the hotel. The postcard was well preserved.
明信片寄給的是瓦卡魯薩附近的“雪倫·安·岡維爾小姐”，所以她就查了一下這個名字，發現收件人就住在酒店附近的一個輔助生活中心。這張明信片保存得很好。
"To have a postcard in this good of condition is amazing," Gongwer said.
“擁有一張保存得這麼好的明信片是一件很神奇的事。” 岡維爾說。
