Tousan's Tousan

A father's father in 1945 with his two oldest children, Tommy and Jimmy. I suspect that it was taken in Hovland on the north shore of the big lake, but just a hunch. The old guy would be 98 this year. Doesn't he look like a logging truck driver.


The traditional Father's Day at the Sculpture Garden yielded this photo of the Lion King (LK??) and the Spoonbridge and Cherry. We missed the smiling countenance of the wanderer, KS, last seen in the Orient.


There is no biking today. The trip to the Spoon and a walk around the Garden and Loring Park in the heat was enough today. The wind is coming on strong, too, which discourages tennis ball slamming and riding of velocipedes.

Happy Father's Day to you who read this, and who are fathers.

By 1945 TE had gone to the Aleutian Islands and returned. So I don't think Hoveland. And it is a different house than the 1942 photo. It is a nice 'Dad' photo though. Nice photo of Unky Herb. He's looking healthier than in the last photo. ~ SS
