PICTURES FROM THE PAST

I happened to come across some old pictures a couple days ago. Hope you enjoy them.

#1 - Who is the beauty hoeing Mother's garden?

#2 Who are they and what are these crazy kids doing?
#3 Who are they, where are they, and what is the occasion? Dig those shoes!
That's all for now. More to come soon.

Here are my guesses:

1. Aunt Ruth
2. Perry and Ada
3. Gloria and Ada

Am I right? Do I get a prize?

Love,
Cathy

Ada said...

You got 1 and 3 right, #2 is half right.

Is the boy in #2 Cleve?

Ada said...

Yes, it's Cleve. We were attempting to make it look like he was holding me in his hand. We were a little disappointed several weeks later when we got the picture developed and we didn't quite hit the target! Perry was the photographer - so it's his fault!

Gloria and I are at the top of Starved Rock. One summer day, Mother told us we were going to Starved Rock. That was when Ralph's lived down the alley behind us and Catherine and the kids went along. It was a very exciting day. Mother was quite a sport sometimes, when I think back on it.

Let's see some more, Ada!

I remember the day we took that picture. Perry thought he really had something there! And I also recall the day at Starved Rock and was enthralled with the Indian story around it. It seemed like a much higher "climb" than when Kathleen and I climbed it 2 years ago. GREAT PICTURES AND MEMORIES.
