Another photo from Andy Halmay’s shoebox:
 

Here is the staircase to heaven by the Prut. That’s me looking disgruntled in the foreground. The lady directly behind me is Dr. Frankel’s wife. The others I don’t remember. The stairs faced the river. They must have once led to some sort of larger perhaps industrial structure. If a list member recognizes it and actually knows the story behind it we’ll clear up an 80 year old mystery. Imagine that kind of structure left by a beach today. You would have safety commissions screaming, a railing would have to be built, on and on.

And if Hitler hadn’t been born I’d still be swimming in the Prut singing Alunelu, Alunelu, hai la joc.
