1925 girl's rifle team.

Edit note: Today, there are only 6 known women's NCAA rifle teams. Also, is it me or does yon woman on the right have a lean and sinister look? Her coat does have a bit of the animal skin look.

My Dad on one of our fishing trips at Spy Lake, in the Adirondacks. Had to get up at 4 am, I wasn’t even human at that hour, because we have to be at the lake by Dawn.

These were the offices of my first job after leaving school .. it was a Computer company, and punch card/tape pool.. and I was the junior.. an Elite 'square'.. in the city .. This photo was taken 15 year before I went to work there.. but it pretty much looked the same except the cars were more modern by the early 70's.

My house 100 years ago. The war memorial was built after WW1 to remember the residents of the village who died in the 'Great War'.
My house is the large one to the right of the photo. The two houses in front of it have been replaced by modern houses. The nearer one was owned by one of the two village blacksmiths.

When I came across this photo, circa 1920's, I just knew that I had to have a pair of shoes like that.



Don't ask me what they cost, just don't go looking at old photos, it can get rather expensive.

Some years ago, I went to the funeral of the last person of my father's generation. His younger brother had died some years earlier, now we were saying farewell to that brother's widow. At the funeral my sister gave me a photo that I almost completely forgotten about. Taken in 1948, it's me with my parents, at I believe, London's Portobello Market. My Dad's suit just blew me away, I loved it. Seeing my reaction, my wife arranged a visit to a bespoke tailor where I had the suit reproduced. Fancy having a photo where I look older than my Dad.
