Wow, the Stroll by the Diamonds...way before I danced to any music. The dress is beautiful, so much the late 1950s comes alive. The letter jacket evokes the era so nicely!

That was fun! Your photos took me back there - I remember the Stroll. Lines of us - mostly girls - at sock hops.

Enjoy St Patrick's Day - I have the same heritage as you. I only just discovered my Irish, though.
