Lena and Don: “100 in the shade…but happy”
I wonder if this was their wedding day. Given the text on the backside of the photo, it seems like details were important to them:
100 in the shade, 119 feet below sea level, but happy in spite of it. Brawley, Cal. Imperial Valley.
Dear Ms. Rose,
You are as feminine looking as your name.

Where are you now, and more importantly, how was the banquet?
“Both of us look quite large”
The back of the photo says:
Both of us look quite large here, Muriel. It doesn’t flatter either of us.
I’m not sure how I’d feel if a lady friend told me that we both looked “quite large” in a photo. I guess I’d commend her honesty. It would beat me to the bitching. This might as well be from modern day Shit Girls Say.
Ladies night!
Now these women know how to throw a party. Who is the lady on the far right? She looks like the life of the table.
The back of the photo reads:

Can someone please translate what the backside of the photos says? Kid, who are you?

A Slice of September ‘65…
Everything is so darn perfect in this picture. The forks are all lined up; the napkins and plates are piled neatly. No signs of fog horns firing off in the background.
She’s all about cutting the cake, and he might be all about eating it.
