Calistoga, April 15, ‘10
Just got here by stage after a 33 mile trip. I came over the saddle in the mountain at about the center of the picture. It is a great trip. Lots of tourists make it a little later on.
With love
Will.

I don’t know what “by stage” means in this sentence. Wikipedia says:
In 1868 Brannan's Napa Valley Railroad Company's track was completed to Calistoga. This provided an easier travel option for ferry passengers making the journey from San Francisco. With the addition of railroad service, Calistoga became not only a destination, but also the transportation hub for the upper valley and a gateway to Lake and Sonoma Counties. A 6-meter diorama of this early Calistoga can be seen in the Sharpsteen Museum.

A little later on in the season maybe? Is that what Will means?
