Photos
Clown Under
“Perth, Australia in the late 80’s. I’m the littlest and pictured with my 2 older brothers and my older sister. We all have no idea who the clown is or why he is even there…just so random!”

Camel Toed
“My brother, sister and I at Western Plains Zoo circa 1991. This photo is awkward enough for the fashions we are sporting, but is cemented by the camels in the background. With my brother gesturing and us all smiling it looks as though we are aware of what is going on, but none of us can imagine either of our parents intentionally taking this photo.”

Rock Bed
“My sister must have fallen asleep on a family walk so she got plonked on the ground for this photo.”

Blue Christmas
“This is my ex-boyfriend’s family. c.1964. He and his twin brother and sisters and Dad are “enjoying” Santa’s visit. They lived in Red Lodge, Montana in the day, so perhaps a more realistic St. Nick was hard to come by.”

My Inhairitance
“This was taken in 1990, Alberta Canada. Can you tell my mom used to do my dad’s hair?”

Tree Huggers
“Supposed to be professional photos, but the guy just set up a log and his assistant held up a fake branch (whose hand is in the frame) between my sister Suzy and I (I’m on the right).”

First Day Of Schule
“My husband’s 1st day of school dressed in a cap that looks like a helmet, old school glasses and white socks & sandals while holding his school-issued ‘Schultuete’ which every kid in Germany gets on the first day of school. And yes, that is his blue briefcase.”
