trouvée: the cherry orchard

Inscribed, recto: "cherrie [sic] orchard"; verso: "Pa picking Cherries / Kansas City Mo." Orchards seem to be the theme for the week.

Some bits:

* cherry blossoms for supper
* with a glass of Savennières

Wishing you all a happy, sunny weekend!

  2. Fascinating how popular 'boaters' were at the beginning of the twentieth century.

  3. Karena ~ would love to know when cherries are in season in KC!

    Emile ~ the boater was fashionable for a remarkably long time (its peak 1880-1920). Have you ever worn one? They are terribly uncomfortable!

  4. Where did you find this photo, and how much do you know about it?
