Shorpy Photo Home Front: Going Swimming and to a Circus

From the Feb. 17, 2016, TRUNK SHOW:  1943--  July 1943.  July 1943.  Montgomery County, Maryland.  "Bathers on the side of a pool at the Glen Echo amusement park."  Esther Bubley, OWI.

Comment:  Glen Echo was whites only until 1961.

FROM THE MARCH 13, 2016 SHORPY  SERIOUS FUN: 1962--  July 1942, Klanmath Falls, Oregon.  "At the sideshow of the circus."  Russell Lee, OWI.  Young couple staring intently at something with a ferris wheel and lighted ride in the background.

Obviously a circus or carnival of some sort.

Even with the war on, fun was still had.
