The Daily Prompt word is Magnetic. As I do the family photographs for the new ancestry site, I came upon these two folks. Now, I have seen this photo before, I just don’t know who they are yet. But I do think they had a pretty good chance of having that magnetic personality most of us enjoy being around. Looks like they arrived (by boat most likely) in Hawaii *leis*. It also appears they are having a lot of fun, *more than sure of that if my Grandparents had anything to do with them*
I wish I could make out that magazine in hand. In this photo I am assuming the location is Sloan Shipyard in Alameda, CA *hint: SS Alameda*.
In any case, I am drawn to these photos as if I was in a magnetic trance of sorts. Just love them.

I'm a budding old bag who blogs and photos everything that inspires me... and sometimes not. I'm also known as Mrs. Shecky The Pointed Finger who points at things and says "Ooohh" and "Ahhh", and "Really?" I could sit in an old chair and read an old book all day, but basically, I keep up with the social scoop by reading the tattles and blogging. It's not for everyone.
Lovely photos. They hardly knew that so many years after someone would be looking at them with admiration and wondering who they are. A good idea is always to label our pictures. Write something behind to say who it is and on what occasion the pic is taken.
Yes. Indeed true. On some of these photos writings were there fortunately. That really helps but on quite a few I’m playing a match game. I have many (boxes of family from the late1800s even). A puzzle

If only we could learn from this and be more prudent.
