Young British women stroll through the city streets in the 1930s, wearing swimsuits their mothers would have never dared don. I can tell it’s not near Texas, as wet pavement is as rare a treat as a Yeti sighting–although ladies striding arm in arm in swimwear through a downtown district is rare itself. Actually, I had shoes like that once, in my cousin’s 1998 wedding, where I served as maid of honor. I believe they were satin. I did not wear them after rainstorms.
Perhaps it is my age, but even now, 90 years later, these suits still seem to leave little to the imagination. However, the women seemed pleased with their freedom, evidenced by smiles from ear to ear–and oddly even teeth, considering the source. Cheers to the days of youthful summers.

In my younger years, I probably would have looked at those swimsuits and thought them terribly old-fashioned but I actually really like those styles now.

Agreed. It’s so funny how our perceptions change.

I had no idea you were over 90. You look good. I’d have pegged you at a young 75 year old.

(blushing and twirling dress about). Closer to half of 90 but as tired and worn as 75.

They do seem happy to be ready for a swim, Kerbey!
