more boxes of memories
Saturday night I went back down to my mom's old place. My brother Terry and his family had cleaned everyting up and Robby, my son, and Madelane, my sister, picked most of it up in Robby's Vanagon. We dropped most off at Madelane's and I took a few more boxes of photographs and papers home. I made a quick inventory and found some interesting negatives.

I have a couple of small prints from this series so I was pretty excited to find the color negatives. This is a Sunday morning in front of our house in Japan. It's 1957 or 1958. I suppose we were off to church but I don't remember that so much. I do remember going to the Tachikawa Officer's Club after church for brunch. The waiters would see this crowd coming in and start bringing out plates of toast. Good times. |
