My mom and her mother, near Saratoga, around 1927:
Grandma strikes a funny pose. She looks like she's having fun!
And here's my grandmother about 20 years later, maybe 1948, at the helm of their little fishing boat. Note that she's got her hand on about a 1 1/2 horse power Sea King outboard motor. She still looks like she's having fun. It wasn't till I scanned this shot and looked at it blown up, that I noticed what an elegant jacket she's wearing. After my grandfather died, she kept the boat a while, and I remember lovely evening putt putt rides in it.
