Polly Brewster and Eleanor Maynard have been inseparable since a summer at Pebbly Pit Ranch, and their friendship now fuels a daring scheme: a leisurely ocean picnic along the Southern seas. While Polly dreams of gliding aboard Dalken’s sleek yacht, Eleanor warns that Mrs. Courtney’s chaperoned cruise might win the vote at their friends’ gathering. Their lively debate over itinerary sheets hints at the spirited negotiations and witty banter that will color the journey ahead.
Beyond the plans, the duo brings a keen eye for antiques, honed during years of selling curiosities out of Mr. Ashby’s shop in New York. Their knack for spotting hidden treasures and their connections with artists and lecturers promise unexpected detours when the cruise sets sail. Listeners will join the girls as they balance ambition, friendship, and the inevitable hiccups that arise before any vessel leaves port.
