I Found This Beautiful Photo in My Grandmother's Old Cedar Chest

I found this photo in my grandma’a old cedar chest.

It shows my young grandparents, August and Faye, out to dinner at Meadowbrook in Culver City, California in June of 1946, only a few weeks after eloping to Vegas to get married.

They had met at a USO dance during the war and wrote love letters to each other when he was out to sea in the Navy; when the war ended, they eloped.

This year would have marked their 69th wedding anniversary, and fortunately they’re celebrating together – just not down here on earth. Crazy kids. ~shared by @littlelilland
