Blast from the Past!

Here is a link to a photo I found of me and my daughter at Mondale/Ferraro rally in 1984

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aPGvOLxBJl5x7-CJXKclLuAV5fUP98GW/view?usp=sharing

It was taken at a rally in her Junior year at Mount Holyoke College.

We lost that one, too, but we always come back. She is now married to a political consultant for Dems in Boston.

well, thank you. It WAS 40 years ago and I was 45. My tip: I never sat out in the sun for a tan. Sunning brings wrinkles CTyankee Nov 13 #7
