Throwback Thursday - Straw Hats


Summer of 1962.  My cousin Lynda (left) was 8 1/2, and I was almost 12.  We were at Misquamicut Beach.

Lynda and I saw these straw hats in the A&P grocery store just down the street from where I used to live in West Springfield.  We had to have those hats!!  I can remember begging my grandmother for them.  She just couldn't imagine why we wanted them, but we eventually wore her down.

We do look kind of cute in them, don't you think?
