Joel Dinda's photos with the keyword: paul

If we assume this undated slide was taken in 1954, I'm five, Paul is seven, and John's about 10. That looks reasonable. It's fair to say that Paul was my best friend until high school; for much of my childhood I had these cousins for neighbors. Paul and I are still friends, but no longer close. No clues where this is, what the occasion is, nor who the faceless adults are. It's obviously not home. Added to Cream of the Crop as my (current) personal favorite picture 1/29/06.

When we dropped in on my Uncle Keith's 80th birthday party the other day, Aunt Jackie handed me this photograph of me and my grandfather. According to the note on the back, I was eight months old--so we'll date the picture as October, 1949. In all honesty, I don't remember Grandpa ever looking this young; he was 60 years older than me, and I really only remember him as an old man. Scanned from a faded, small, slightly-out-of-focus print. Not sure who took it, nor where the photo was taken, but it must be in or near Kalamazoo. Significantly cropped to remove a bush which doesn't contribute anything much to the original photograph. Some noise removed, but I couldn't do much about the focus problems. Not particularly related: The view counter on my photostream went over 9000 while I was posting this photo. Thanks for looking.
