Clogs

Disney World, 1972
I recently found this fabulous photo of my mother–no wonder she ran kicking and screaming from Manhattan when my grandfather retired to Florida, and we followed. I love the clogs she’s wearing. It reminded me of a store on Beach Drive in St. Petersburg we use to visit that only sold Scandinavian products called The Straw Goat.

Beach Drive, St. Petersburg, Florida
I will definitely be writing more at a later date on my mother who was voted Dream Girl at The University of Wisconsin. Feeling nostalgic on this snowy day I decided to take a trip to one of my favorite places — The Scandinavia House.
Beautiful post, Julia! I dig your mother’s clogs, along with the hat and dress. Smashing! I also loved the threads in the post: the branches, the trees, the snow, the Icicles, and clogs, of course. Stay warm! Theadora
