Sepia Saturday challenges bloggers to share family
history through old photographs.
The unusual pose of the man and young girl in this week's Sepia Saturday prompt reminded me of some of the funny pictures in the album
belonging to my grandaunt Velma Davis Woodring. The pictures were taken during
her freshman year at Harrisonburg Teacher’s College (now James Madison
University - Go DUKES!). Apparently they
enjoyed being silly.

| I am not sure what they were drinking but they were having a good time! |
 |
| While the pose itself isn't all that unusual, what's with the skirt? |
I admit, silliness must be genetic. Forty-five years
later, my friends and I were doing the same thing at the same school.

Strike a pose at Sepia Saturday.

Always good to have a good laugh and to be enjoying life! Glad someone thought to take pictures of it!

I agree! Plus it's fun to see what people that I knew only as "old people" were like when they were young.
DeleteThat head poking out behind Thelma - priceless! I always love your Sepia Saturday posts - you create quite a post from one picture. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteDon't you wish you had the stories behind these photos? I'm sure there were stories....
