There was no such thing as pantyhose, we wore stockings that attached to the rubbery clippy things that attached to the girdle. Convenience stores were not common and when we took a trip we packed a picnic basket because many places did not have fast food. Highways had places to pull over and stop, some with picnic tables.

1940s WW2 House part One

August 6, 2016

I have a surprise for you.  My husband and I took a trip to a special place that I have been intending to go to for quite sometime.  I had been there several years ago but I wanted to go again to take pictures and share with all of you.  I think this will make many of you happy :)

We went to the Pensacola Naval Museum to their 1940s museum ww2 house.
