Cool family photo

In the aftermath of my father-in-law's passing, we've been going through a lot of stuff and came across a ton of photos. This one is my hands-down favorite!


It's my husband's grandmother (my FIL's mother) standing outside a Florida motel in the late 50s/early 60s. I just love the neon sign behind her. And those shoes and that bag! Awesome!

    Although I seriously doubt it, I wonder if that motel is still in existence (and if so, hopefully it's not a crack hole). I love the handbag, dress and shoes. She doesn't look all that pleased to be standing there--wonder if she just had a fight with her hubby???? "Honey, I do NOT want to stand in front of that sign so you can take a darn picture! I feel silly!" Too bad--picture taken, and thank goodness so you have it to share with us.
