Rita on her Honeymoon

Came across this photo recently and thought it was cute.  It is a photo taken in October 1940 on my parents' honeymoon.  They went to Washington, DC and Mount Vernon and my mother had purchased a special honeymoon suit and a fancy-dancey honeymoon hat.  It is how things were done back in the day.  From what my Mom told me over the years she felt like she married the right man, and she had a marvelous time on her honeymoon.
