Playing Possum

“That’s my grandfather (Pappy) kneeling, my sister in his lap, and my cousin standing. I believe it was my uncle’s possum – he was known for taking in and rehabbing animals in a spare bathroom. This was taken in 1969 in Grand Junction, Tennessee.”

Once Bitten

“My little sister, brother and teenage neighbor playing with a baby raccoon. Begs the question- how did we survive the 70s???”

Pecking Order

“My mum, me as a little baby and one of my cousins behind us. This was my first Christmas and my godparents gave me this chicken as a gift. We lived in a 2nd floor flat and I was terrified of it so it had to go back to their farm. To this day I have no idea why they thought that this would make a perfect Christmas gift for me but it was the sweetest and most Slavic thing I’ve ever experienced.”

When Pigs Fly
