From an Outtakes Box

Downers Grove, Illinois, Autumn 1963. I was shuffling through one of Dad's outtakes boxes, and I ran across this photo. I don't know why Dad didn't like it; I find it more appealing than the ones from that day he had pasted in the photo album.

Towering Trees

Downers Grove, Illinois, February 1962. The spruces dwarf me and my friend.

Cat Nap

Downers Grove, Illinois, Spring 1965. This photo provides more evidence that my Mom likes cats.

Don't worry; the hill isn't steep.

Supervised Snow Play

Downers Grove, Illinois, February 1962. My Mom and a friend watch over us. I later continued skiing.

It looks like I've already fallen at least once.

Learning to fall properly is an imporant life lesson.
