here's a look at life on the beach back in 1896 -1904 era at Coney Island

These ladies are on the beach having lunch, looks like they are having hamburgers?

Thanks. I always enjoy looking at photos from bye-gone eras. Especially looking at peoples faces. Reminds me how very similar they must have been to us... Very similar yet they'd probably be flabbergasted to see the strange, wonderful, horrifying, amazing, world that we live in today.
