The next morning at 9:15, they were on their way.
When the plane landed, Lucy and Ricky got off and went to the first hotel they saw. Getting a room, the man at the desk asked if they were the Ricardo's? After Ricky informed him that they were, the man told them that he had a note, and he was wold to give it to 'Lucy Ricardo'.
"Who's it from?" asked Ricky.
"Person said not to tell you."
"Well, was it a man ot a woman?" asked Lucy.
"Said if you don't already know, not to tell you."
"Thank you." Said Lucy and Ricky in unison.
"Hey, what about your room?" asked the man.
"We'll have to get back to you on that." said Ricky.
Lucy and Ricky then went outside and found a bench, where they sat down to read the note. It said:
Dear Lucy,
--What A Day, Huh? Look
--On The Bright Side - You Got My
--New Note! But What Am I
--Down (Up) To Now? Where Am I On The
--East Coast? I'm Going For A Nice, Long
--Run! Care To Join Me In A
--South
--Town? After
--All, You Said You Liked To
--Read!
Your Friend Always,
'A' Name -
But Which Name? - Who's Name
After seeing this, Ricky realized Lucy was not making this up. But neither Ricky, or Lucy, could figure out what it meant. East Coast - they got that. But where on the - East Coast? Ricky made a suggestion. "This person said - South Town - maybe 'South State'? South Carolina?"
"Maybe Ricky. But where in South Carolina?"
"South Town? Maybe it's a town that's the most south on the coast?"
"Can we try it Ricky?"
"Try what?"
"The most - South Town - on the coast in South Carolina?"
"But where would we go from there?"
"Ricky...even I could figure that out! Read Ricky, a library. This person obviously talked to the man at the hotel. They might talk to a librarian, too."
"Well, I don't have any better suggestions."
"Really??? We can?"
"Come on, let's go see if the airport has any flights leaving for South Carolina."
"Okay, Ricky?!" Lucy said excitedly.
Lucy and Ricky were lucky as there was a flight to leave in about 1/2 hour at 2:00.
