My grandparents' courtship


Not in the best of condition, but I do love this picture of Ruth (standing on left) and Donald, looking back over his shoulder at her.  Her smile shows the affection she held for him, I think.

Both women wear the large, unusual hats of the era which was 1912.  Ruth's hat appears to have an entire bird's wing applied to it on her left side. The bow on the friend's hat at right is unbelievable, isn't it?
