Then and now

This morning, Lynn showed me a Facebook video of a young woman dressing for tennis as was done in the year 1885.  I am fascinated by women and their ways.   Their patience and interest in being acceptable seems to radiate out of this video of less than 6 minutes.


Take a sympathetic look.  Then pull up some recent shots of Simone Biles.
