People literally left their shoes in the mud sometimes. They would step in the mud and they would pull their foot out and there would be no shoe on it, and they’d just keep going. So when they’d have dances at the tennis courts women would show up with these big boots and then take the boots off with all the mud and then slip on the golden sandals and away they’d go. Women had an incredible ability to sort of float above all the dust and mud and look gorgeous all the time, where the rest of us were kind of wallowing in what was there.
