Photographs


It was the second week of October, 1963 - three weeks before Pat Hogan was to be married. A group os Airwomen from Metz decided it was time to drive to The Hague in Holland. The trip was kind of like a bachelor (Doe) party for Pat. It was also a chance to do some shopping during the sales that were on at the time. All the Airwomen were friends - however, none of us were to be bridesmaids at Pat's wedding. It was Pat's intention to purchase her wedding trousseau (which she did) during our stay in Holland.

    We used this car to make the trip to Holland. The windmill was the first one we were able to tour inside and was located at Kinderdijk on the way back to Metz. Just barely visible in the back seat are Cevile LeBlanc and Bernie Bear. Pat and Flo are in the car, but not visible.
