Glamour Girl

My Mom was so very elegant I just had to post this pic. (click on it to make it bigger) She worked for a well known photographer when she moved to The City in Texas. He's the man on the right who mentored her. She learned to photograph and hand paint or aqua tint photographs since there was no color back then. (Mom tinted the photo of she and Paint that follows) Mom thought the world of him. Although Mom had many suitors, she met and later married my Dad not long after this was taken. Dad was in the first class of jet fighter pilots, a Yankee and new to the state. (see Headwinds and Tailwinds for his pic) It's a little bit of history.
