A Day Out With Grandma and Grandpa

 

A perfect activity for a summers day in 1970.

And, unless I am mistaken, in the background is the statues of Pluto and Prosperine, an infant triton on a winged horse, and tritons and sea creatures, in the Fountain of Pluto and Prosperine in the grounds of Waddesdon Manor.

Bonus -A woman called me ugly until she found out how much money I make.

Now she's calling me ugly and poor.

Cars of my youth. Ah.

From 1978, this slide clicked so many buttons for me...especially as I owned an Austin Princess.Oh yes !

Saturday on the Silty Shoreline

So, I recently relocated the slide scanner, and simultaneously rediscovered by joy in scanning slides. (A lot depends upon the subjects of the slides - there are good boxes and bad boxes.)

So, this one was one of yesterday's scans and there are a LOT of this family. Today's is from a trip to the beach, possibly on / near the Isle of Wight.  Ah, memories. Building damns and structures to retain the tidewater.
