I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.
Just after they were married in 1953 they went to visit his dad in Arkansas, and that’s where the porch photo was taken. They lived in a trailer park when he was in the army in Edgewood MD, it wasn’t vintage back then!

Yes, my mother said if she hadn’t been at the births she wouldn’t have been able to tell she was involved in any of us.

Beautiful pictures. I love the one of him sitting on the porch… and of the vintage camper behind him in another.

Thank you Dawn. 🙂
The one where he is young with a baby — would that be his younger sister?
