The goal of the trip appears to be settling William Strickler's estate as well as visiting with family. Someone known only as \"B.\" is the diarist's companion on the trip. There are mentions of \"Uncle Will\" [Strickler] and \"Uncle Perry\" [Strickler] who lived in Vancouver, Washington. The couple made the trip via a Ford automobile part of the way and also traveled via train and bus. The pair visited Hazel Strickler Halford and husband Bill in Los Angeles.
