That's all she wrote: "Oct. 2, 1921." Wish I knew why.
At left is Mabel Larson(? — last name not certain). At right, Mildred Lindborg.
Mabel's dress has an elaborate design of embroidery or braid on the bodice, then the skirt flares out suddenly at the hips — open-hanging pockets, perhaps? — to make it look as if the poor girl were wearing saddlebags underneath. Those 1920s fashions were just weird. Mildred's outfit is more timeless; only look at her boots — above the ankle, lace-up or maybe button-up — either way, a chore to get into and out of.
I'm not sure where they are. That might be the frame part of the Lindborg blacksmith shop/dance hall behind them.
