I received the above picture from Don Bennet who had this to say about it.
“(Here’s) a snap shot of me in front of “Happy Hour” beach. Those truly were the happy hours of my early days with thanks to the Wyatts, Lake George and the Huletts gang.”
Update:
I originally had the date of this picture as 1945 but Don emailed me and said it was most likely taken in 1940 or 1941.
