Even the Shenandoah Mountains can look pretty intimidating, (as a low country boy I speak from experience)so a school hike must have been a memorable adventure. Their faces show the excitement. And Velma's white ink on black makes a creative album style.

So many of the girls are dressed in white blouses with sailor collars, a tie, and dark skirts. It looks so much like the pictures I posted here: http://www.abbieandeveline.com/2012/11/24/sepia-saturday-sisters-but-not/. Now I'm wondering if that was the typical school uniform for teacher schools, and, if so, will help me date my photo a little more specifically. Thanks! Two weeks ago it was a tablecloth I recognized. Hope we can keep on this roll!
