What a great photo! The guy at the front in the cap looks like Yul Brynner… I wonder if he was fond of time travel?

Haha! It looks like someone draped a sweater over his back. Maybe one of the girls perched on a plank over the water. It took some agility to get out on that plank!

I wonder who they are…and why they’re there all together. The lady on the far left, how daring she is sitting just a touch apart, out over the water. It’s quite wonderful Brad. Makes me think of a quiet walk along the shore and the way the wind blows there no matter how still the rest of the land is. Thank you 😌

I, too, wondered what brought this group together. Two girls are in bathing costumes, while the others are dressed normally. Thank you for taking a stroll in the archives, Suzanne. Or should I say a dip? It’s never windy here, and the water’s always warm, I promise! 😉

It’s really my joy Brad. Old bathing costumes are so fascinating and there’s quite a variety of clothing in this group! I was enjoying some of your other photos yesterday as well. This morning has a quiet to it. What lovely thoughts you share, thank you! 🌷
