havN fun, wsh u wr hre!

A photo I found in mom's collection, it's interesting for a number of questions it brings to mind, like what year was this, and what was printed on the boat there, and--were they really texting?

Ok, then, where was "Summit Park"?  Turns out it was in St Paul, on the Mississippi river, and if it was the same park then as now, it's big feature was bluffs overlooking the river, not a boat rental.
I suspect this was late '40's, and possibly a pic sent to mom after she moved home in 1945.  I have no photos of HER in a bathing suit...but standards  changed during the war, and 'decent' women could be seen renting a boat in such skimpy outfits...lol
