Taking a step back in time

Taking a step back in time: I check the back ribbon of my Minnie Pearl straw hat before leaving the house. I gingerly step into Kathy’s car ducking my head wondering how did women drive with these hats? (Perhaps they didn’t?) I notice we are both wearing summer cotton dresses and sandals. This is not an ordinary outing for a Sunday afternoon. No, we are headed to the Collins Schoolhouse to participate in the fifth annual Ice Cream Social.

Could that still be June's hand writing?



Here is the link to this week's column. It was such a lovely day to spend at the Collins Schoolhouse. Maybe you will get to go next year. As always thank you for reading! Lou Ann


One can only imagine what was inside those lunch pails!

Cute as always , it gives me a " summer time" feeling with ice cream, hats , cotton dresses and shade ... Oh and I bought my Charlottesville house 10 years ago this last July , you bought yours 15 years ago ...

Sharing stories make us feel close and familiar to places we yet never have been to !
Thank You !

Thank you.
