A Solo Stroll: 1941
August 1941. "Ewen, Michigan. Former lumber town in Ontonagon County." Medium format acetate negative by John Vachon for the Farm Security Administration. View full size.

Sadly, a similar scene is playing out across the nation and for good reason. Keep your distance and please stay safe all. Thanks to Shorpy for reminding us and keeping us entertained in time of need.
