Just past the row of telephone poles

1939- The Grand Ball
... you turn right at the spot where the two roads converge, a little off- set but you can't miss it.
Don't be late, Lucy! The Grand Ball is the event of the year. I don't want to miss a thing. Do be a darling and bring that lovely broach you nicked from your Grandmama' s jewelry box. It would be just perfect with the velvet gown I'll be wearing.
We shall pretend the King and Queen are still in this fair city. My mother has invited every noble person she can imagine in her lovely head.
Dancing is from 9 p.m. until 2 a.m. I shall have the most sore feet ever! Won't it be just divine!
