Fork Union!!!! Wow-- htat was like the really déclassé place to go-- it was for PROBLEM BOYS!!!
The "right" places were Woodberry Forest and Episcopal. I remember going to Woodberry Forest for dances-- proper invitations, and having to RSVP the host home, (Miss Penelope Anne Chappell accepts with pleasure....)
Miss Penni was 16- she didn't know what the heck she was doing- thank god for mothers. I had all these lessons on how to leave your dirty bed, how to eat with 47 forks and spoons, how to write gracious thank yous post trip) Yet in a way, I miss the structure and elegance of those days. THere is a certain comfort, I think, in tradition. Or is that just the Southern belle in me coming out? I also think you need to know when to flip your finger at formality.
