This is a fantastic photo! I did some research and apparently in the 1920s laced swim shoes were a thing. Introduced by the United States Rubber Company around 1916 they introduced the Keds iconic Champion silhouette with “Today’s modern lady looks her best when she feels her best. That’s why we made Keds.”

People have always been drawn to the beach. Good times with family and friends, fun food, and making memories on the sand as the sun shines down.

I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth.
So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her.

My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.

I am fascinated by old photographs, especially those of my ancestors and ones that show the history of cities I've visited (plus World's Fair photos). Old photographs separated from people who want them seem to be attracted to me which is good if I can find those people but also inconvenient because this is not an easy task.
