Description

A large group is pictured picnicing near the beach. The men, women, and children are wearing very fancy hats. You can see picnic baskets, food, and flowers laid out on a white cloth. There appears to be a dock or fish trap in far out in the water. The back of the photo is a postcard sent on Julyl 31, 1910. "Dear "Petty Mouse": Do you recognize any one here? Were on a picnic to the West Beach. How is everyone and we are all fine here. Going for a roadride soon. Remember me to all. With Love, Paula." It is addressed to Mrs. H. J. Nunan 1335 Grand St. Bellingham, Wash.
