I loved your pieces the other day - it never ceases to amaze me all the things that happen to people, what goes on in their lives and how it goes on to shape those who come after. I understand YOU a lot better for learning about your mother.
So, reason says this is your mom, with the whole remembering her this week thing, but I thought you said she had beautiful brown hair, native American-ish? Blonde bombshell wig? You are taking this Wordless Wednesday thing a wee bit too seriously!!

WOW!!
What was that taken for?
Were women just more glamorous back then? You don't see many pictures like that anymore, do you?

I think we were just far more romantic and a little bit mysterious in those days....the romance made the glamor.

Love this picture. It reminds me of the senior pictures they used to take with the boa's around their bare shoulders.
