Edith Sherman is staying at Henry Hobbes home while she spends a summer volunteering and awaiting a stint of missionary work in South Africa. Henry isn’t living there himself so the two begin leaving notes for each other. Imagine the comedy as Edith assumes Henry is elderly and Henry in turn assumes Edith is also a senior citizen. Eventually, of course, the two realize their errors and find they are madly in love. Now what will they do with Henry’s roots firmly in the small Midwestern town he is living in and Edith’s longtime desire to serve as a nurse in South Africa? Be ready for some laughs thrown in with some romance!
