At Palms, June 1922

From Mildred Lindborg's photo album.

This photo was taken "at Palms', June 1922," according to Mildred's caption. That would be the farm of Peter and Hulda Palm.

What was the occasion, I wonder? They all are dressed well, and (judging by the collar) there is a pastor among them … but pastors are allowed to picnic too.

None of these people are identified. Among the men standing in back, we can recognize (third from the left, wearing a driving cap) Gust Lindborg, and to the right of him, behind the other women, Anna Lindborg, holding Raymond (who would turn four years old on June 12, 1922, but if this were his birthday party, surely he'd be front and center in the photo?).

As for the rest, I can only say that the young woman second from the left in the row of women resembles Mabel Larson(?) of the Jolly Three.
