Hikers' Lunch

Glacier National Park, Montana, July 1972. We're again headed to Bullhead Lake.

Everybody's in the Picture

Toronto, Ontario, Canada, July 1969. Dad's quite tan, and Jonė holds Fuzzina.

Holiday Weekend

Cape Cod, Massachusetts, July 1963. Mom's knitting bag is nearly within reach.

Testing

Suburban Chicago, April 1964. Dad must have gotten a new camera; the 1964 album has a few "selfies" from the spring season.

A New Year's Table

December 31, 1971. The New Year's parties got smaller over the years. We still shared a late meal before we headed to the Rec Room to watch Die Fledermaus.

Reconnected

Brooklyn, New York, June 1974. My Parents visit with my Dad's cousins and their husbands.

A Favorite for Father's Day

Suburban Chicago, April 1962. I revisit the image of Dad and me in the remodeled Rec Room.

Shifted

Suburban Chicago, September 1963. Dad tries a different angle.

A Quick Selfie

Suburban Chicago, December 1983. Neither Meškė nor Dad settled before the self-timer clicked.

Testing the self-timer.

Suburban Chicago, 1961. Dad experiments with the new device.

Grab a Book: Serious-Tweed Edition

Suburban Chicago, December 1973. Sometimes Dad smiled for the selfie, and sometimes he struck a serious expression.

Half Smile

Suburban Chicago, November 1965. Dad relies on a familiar expression for the self-timer setting.

A Closer Look (Part 19)

Suburban Chicago, February 1962. This "Closer Look" is not an image I cropped; instead, it's one Dad enlarged and printed. Here's the original post.

Rec-Room Relaxation

Suburban Chicago, January 1979. Dad sets up the self-timer for another photo. He's wearing one of the zippered cardigans Mom knitted. Mom's "stay-at-home clothes" now include trousers. Mom is on call because the phone is at her feet. Gigi has brought her favorite toys onto the ottoman.

Sunday Paper: Worried Edition

Suburban Chicago, Winter 1978. My Parents didn't read the Chicago Sun-Times; they subscribed to the Chicago Tribune. Dad must have bought this edition of the Sun-Times because of the headline—"Anti-Soviet Rampage in Lithuania."

A Smaller Gathering

Suburban Chicago, December 31, 1971. This photo dates from about the time we started celebrating the New Year by watching Die Fledermaus.

We're drinking from my Mom's funky champagne glasses. Each glass has a different tinted hue. My Mom's best friend Donna (seated to my left) also had a similar set. I was delighted a few years ago when Mom gave me those glasses.

Let's get a picture before we take down the tree.

Suburban Chicago, December 1964. The aluminum tree didn't get assembled every year, but it lasted for a while.

Ready for Sunday

Suburban Chicago, December 1964. Dad again sets up the self-timer.

What do you do at work?

Chicago, Illinois, Winter 1967. It wasn't until I was older that I understood Dad's lab work.

Understanding

Door County, Wisconsin, 1980. The self-timer setting captures two common expressions.
