This is the lady who greeted us at the historic home of Martinsburg's founder. I admired her dress, and she explained that it was originally her daughter's dress. She added the lace, which she took from a curtain.

I'm a bit out of the loop (got a bit of catching up to do), but this lady looks quite amazing; like a kind of friendly ghost.
