In order to make things go faster I decided to scan whole pages of photos and not break them up into individual photos. That takes too much time. Besides, you can download and edit as you wish. I will try to describe what/who is each picture. They are mostly family.
Me and Mom in Canada, and me at home. Dad would catch fish and Mom taught me how to gut and cook them. Sadly I hated eating fish.
We went on vacation to this beautiful lake in Quebec. All the people spoke french and i made friends with this little girl, who tried teaching me french.
Mom and her evil poodle Pepe. Bottom left is Frank and Shirley Costanzo. Frank was a brick layer and often worked on Dad homes. A group of them met every Friday, Saturday and Sunday for poker at one of the houses. Usually it was the Costanzo house. So I got to stay up late and watch Chiller Theater with the 3 super pretty Costanzo girls. Of course we were just kids.
Some pix of Mom at house. Two pix of Uncle Frank shootong skeet at the rosedale gun club. I was not athletic but Frankie taught me how to shoot shotgun, rifle and pistol and I was captain of the HS rifle team. Uncle Frank was literally a second Dad to me and I will ways miss him.
Pix from Rosedale Gun Club. BL is Dad at home with a fish he caught. Since we lived so close to the river, Dad would occasionally walk down and fish a bit, usually off Bob Van Pelt's houseboat.
Aunt Aggie, ruthie and me, before our split. Cousin Butch and his wife. Ruthie. Mom about to wake Dad up! LOL
Cousin Dana and her hubby. She babysat me once when I was about 6. Beautiful girl. Hope she didn't end up stuck up like her Mom. Sadly both passed away in the 90s. Note my 4 inch telescope in the background.
