First Folder, 10th Photograph

Before I make a full return to the land of blog, I'm going to participate in a game of "photo tag" at Beth's request. The idea is to take the 10th photograph from the first folder of photographs on your computer. I had to go through quite a few folders before I found one that had 10 photographs!!

I don't mind sharing this one as all the people in the photograph are now deceased and no names need to be changed to protect the innocent!

This was taken, obviously during World War II though I don't know the exact date. It was taken in Toronto, Ontario, in the east end of the city. My mother is the little charmer in the front row with the groovy drooping socks and the closed eyes. Shame she forgot to keep her eyes open and her legs closed!! The woman to her left is her mother (my Scottish grandmother) and to her right is her cousin Margaret. My uncle is the dapper sailor with the cigarette and my grandfather is the dashing man in the suit on the right.

I look a lot like my mother now and then, when I was the same age she was in this photograph. I wore my hair the same way at that age. I even have a photograph of myself with both my eyes and my legs open. It's in the genes.
