HOW ABSOLUTELY right you are! and there were women who lived that way! Early on! My Mommy ib the early twenties joined her married friends to move to the territory of Hawaii! She talked the President of the University in to trading her advertising in "the States" for free tuition..........(she was not a citizen of the Territory!)
the President of the University said "yes"!! The she went to the Philllipines; built a mixture golf course,,,,,(they were all the rage in the "States"; sold that and moved to Shanghai........where she LOVED!
There have always been women adventuresses! My mother did this in the late twenties........Shanghaim she said was like Paris!! Full of chic and sophisticated people from all over the world!
Makes we wonder why we all try too hard when it can be so easy...these women are just "being", not trying to make a statement or prove anything...gorgeous.

ReplyDeleteLove these covers. I have dozens stored in my garage and pray they stay dry. Alas storage in the warm, dry house is limited. Shiree'
