Just moseying around in the ol’ family album…

July 1945 - My mom cradling my big brother. The summer before his 'nightmare' was born.

Mom, brother, and the little nightmare - summer of '47 in Val Morin. Look, he's daring to touch 'it'! :-D
Mom, brother, and the little nightmare – summer of ’47 in Val Morin. Look, he’s daring to touch me… you can see the perfect ambivalence in his expression.
Beautiful mom, cute kids. August 1947, Val Morin. He's actually daring to lean next to me!
Beautiful mom, cute kids. August 1947, Val Morin. He’s actually daring to lean next to me! Is he getting used to the idea that she’s not going to give me back?

Summer 1947 - Val Morin. I told you I learned to read really young, didn't I? ;-)

Summer 1947 – Val Morin. I told you I learned to read really young, didn’t I? 😉  Note the brother is nowhere to be found.

Summer 1947 Val Morin - although I notice my father wrote '48 on the pic. But what did he know, eh? Note the little cabin where we all crammed in, two or three families.
Summer 1948 Val Morin. Note the little cabin where we all crammed in, two or three families together.  Brother is still MIA.

Ah, fun in the country. Good times, a great respite from concrete and smog!
