I found this photo of my mother when she must have been no more than 22. On the back of it, I was surprised to find a note from her father! Here’s what it said.
These were the days at Mayo when long dresses were in fashion. “Woweee.” This particular photograph was found while cleaning up and tidying one of our large suitcases. This dress is almost reaching your ankles. What a great contrast from today with the mini skirts just a few inches from the hips. You used to be keenly interested in flowers and pot culture as shown when you were holidaying in our country home. With lots of love from Dad. 11/27/1972
