Description

Two spirited Kentucky girls, Shirley and Mabel, have just finished a year at the Bluegrass Seminary and are itching for a summer adventure. Their fathers, longtime friends, finally agree to accompany them on a trip that promises to break the routine of farm life. With a blend of youthful enthusiasm and modest confidence, the duo dreams of exploring new places beyond their familiar fields.

The story paints a vivid picture of small‑town camaraderie, school sports, and the close‑knit bond between the girls and their families. Their talents—horseback riding, singing in the glee club, and a knack for solving problems—hint at the lively escapades that await. As the summer begins, listeners are invited to share in the girls’ planning, the gentle teasing of their fathers, and the promise of a journey that will test their courage and friendship.
