This is from the backyard.
Remember these cotton fabric bathers (swimsuits) - 'bubble' - with elastic - the bubbles would fill up with air.
A dirty face. I'd probably been running through the garden sprinkler to cool off. Ever suspicious of the 'Brownie Box Camera', I've never been too pleased with cameras.
Shows the house next door, to the south, and on the right - part of the 'greenhouse' - a planting shed. This deteriorated a bit - made of wood, grey in color. Was later demolished to make way for a free-standing 'sleepout' for my Dad.
At this time, Grandpa was the gardener, and although aging, he keep a nice garden with orderly garden beds, and some vegetable gardens on the tiered layers going down the back yard to Military Road. He taught me lots about flowers, plants and seeds, I would follow him around, full of questions. He was very patient with me.
