American without tears

I love this picture from the Sept. 1946 National Geographic. It's full of hope and optimism for the future and I'll bet those gals were happy to be coming to a place where the weather didn't suck all the time.

What's with the aprons, and that's some hideous footwear - glad I wasn't around in '46.

They must not be landing in Minnesota because lately the weather sucks all the time, except for alternate Tuesdays.

Girls with a British accent are hot!

I love that white blouse & slacks ensemble worn by the woman in the left.

Fab photo.

Dr. Z, hot girls with cool accents and horrible teeth. Tough trade-off.

Are they going to toss that kid in the lifesaver over the side?

The second one from the left looks like my Grandma 'bout that time. I love the lil'one in the life preserver!
