Betty's and Rae's Families (Bronx, NY, and California, ~1957 and ~1995)

Back in Miami, and now I have access to the 6,000 old family pictures again.

The left-most child below is my cousin Verne (Cousin #17/Ray's #2), who I've somehow missed in all these pictures. Just two more of my 19 first cousins to go! To the right of him are his sister Marci, and Ilene and Larry in front of Betty and George.



And here are the four of them again, about 50 years later.

Travels With Mickey (Black Mountain, NC; Paris, France; Rapello, Italy, 2008-9)

Somehow, I keep taking this same picture. Yes, he's wearing a beret in the Paris photo, click on the photo and it will be obvious. Notice, btw, that in all three pictures Mickey is staring right at the camera. In all three pictures, I took the shot with the self-timer. How does a dog know to stare at the camera? He was born knowing how to stare at cameras.

(Next week, I finally get access to the 6,000 old photos again!)

What's Out There, Anyway? (West Virginia and Cambridge, MA; Oct 2009 and late 1990s)

(Borrowed from Norman without permission.)

Ari And Olivia On The Beach (Hilton Head, SC, August, 2009)

Allison took these great pictures of Ari with his cousin Olivia.

Dora Cooking (Rochester, NY, unknown date)

Just one more month before I get access to my scanned photos again! This is Dora cooking in my parents' kitchen, I'm not sure when.
