First Flight - Wordless Wednesday

My grandmother, Anna Pereksta Popp just before taking her first airplane ride, c. 1961. She was flying from upstate New York to the West Coast to see her son and his family.

  3. Did she ever tell you about the flight? Was she nervous that first time flying? She looks happy and confident in the photo.
