It can now be revealed that the two ladies in my life who are constantly reminding me to wash my hands, keep everything clean, wear masks in public 
and more, have a very checkered past when it comes to such matters! For real!
Here is the proof, there is no denying that they have strayed … and to this day, there is a patent leather shoe buried somewhere in our yard under mud.
I took this shot back in 1967 shortly after we moved into our new home in Huntington Beach, California … we had not yet put the yard in, it had rained and our kids did what kids do best … enjoy themselves … mom and dad were there to serve them and please note the huge smiles on their faces.
I’ve been working on old family photos today and may have to re-scan a lot of them. To save time years ago, I sent several hundred photos out to a commercial lab to be scanned … to be honest they did a less than perfect job and I am going back and restoring the images the best I can. It is truly fun to relive moments from the past … to my granddaughters, maybe you should have a talk with your moms. Smiles.
Have a beautiful day and do not ever allow yourself to grow up and become an adult … always keep that childlike joy ever present and view the world with a beautiful smile … keep breathing too and share the joy you find in life.
Cheers.
Ted
