I still haven't figured out how to use my scanner, but Yoko very kindly did it for me. I love these photos.
Carol used to wear her dark brown hair in braids across her head. Years later, in my forties, I did the same. When my hair had turned brown. In these photos, I'm the blond with curls.
In the photo in the sandbox, I'm wearing a Puritan dress my mother made for our dress-up box. Usually one of us would be wearing a dress and the other overalls. We both have many of the same memories now. It's been a great pleasure to reconnect so many years later.
This picture is of all (or almost all) the kids in our neighborhood. Reading from the left, is (I think) Barbara Bradley, my sister Diane, holding my cousin Missy, Carol's brother Jimmy, Carol, myself, Donny Haller, and my cousin Billy (Missy's brother). I remember my dad posing us on the fence. I had to pee in the previous picture (as you can see!) but my dad took the picture anyway.
