The ladies of San Gimignano were thrilled to hear that Cary Grant would be passing through town but knew they would have to work quickly. The next day as Mr. Grant’s car drove down Via San Matteo, he commented to his driver how odd it seemed that none of the homes had any curtains.  When he entered the town square and saw his welcoming committee, he knew why.

My first smile of the day! Trying to figure out how my sister-in-law got in the photo.

Not to mention they all have donned their sexiest dresses, too! What’s even more frightening, is the fact that the oldest-looking woman in this photo was probably younger than I am now — ouch! ;)

Because the ladies who are lined up in the photo look like their dresses are made from drapery. This is a prime example of me being in my own head seeing something and assuming that everyone else sees it as well. I’m not sure what that is called but if I am to be a writer for the people, I’d better figure it out! Thanks.

By the look of their handbags, I think some of them are still carrying their sewing machines in case of emergency repairs
