SOMEONE ELSE'S PHOTO ALBUM

A while ago I was wandering around the auction house downtown. I ended up focused on a photo album in a box. Testing the waters, I put in an absentee bid of ten dollars. I was surprised when I got the call to come pick up my purchase. And then I was surprised again because it came with a whole box full of other albums, all from the same family.

I realize that a family's collection of photo albums is a strange acquisition.

If you happen to know Louis or Clara or any of these people, I'm happy to bring their albums to them.

One of them is dedicated to a trip to Mazatlan in the Spring of 1978.








Pretty sure his wife is Clara but here he's traveling with Joyce.
Anyway it was the seventies.






However I plan to keep this picture of a fisherman throwing his net.













I think Louis was a councilor for the downtown Y.





























Remember travel clubs? Some people could do that gracefully. For a short time my family belonged to a travel club called the Jetaways. That was in southern California, so when we camped we slept on the beach. I don't believe we meshed well with the club, but I don't get that feeling from Louis's family. They make it look easy.




although, who all's in his family?






for children there's only this cat




unfavorites?



You had to wash a lot of cars for this trip to new york.
I like this early bike messenger style, nice road bike, nice crutches.







From here on it's about Louis and Clara.








or more specifically it's about Clara



looking like Astrid Gilberto
