The same setting and the same children from Sunday's photo, in this one it looks like a few of the children are eating grass or at the very least picking at the clover.

Photo Number 215
Kids with droopy drawers and bowl haircuts and a man in a straw hat..with a Model T ( 1908 to 1927) or a Model A ( 1927 to 1931) in the background. A summertime gathering, possibly in the late 1920's or early 1930's.

Photo Number 214
I have many questions about this photo...the man on the right..what is hanging from his pants? The little girls have huge hair bows..weren't these popular in the 1920's? I am wondering about the pipe behind them, were they standing near a field? The two gals in the center could be sisters, children usually stand in front of their parents in a photo, and I believe that is exactly what these little girls are doing.

Photo Number 213
This may be one reason that I do not carry a purse or wear a hairnet. This is probably from the late 1950's or early 1960's. I have a feeling that this lady was all dressed up to go visiting.

Photo Number 212
Do you suppose these three were a set of triplets? Or just cousins about the same age? I think they had red hair! Cute as a bugs ear! I am really enjoying these candid snapshots, I am thinking the date on this photo should be sometime in the 1930's ..what do you think?

Photo Number 211
It is that time of year for Graduation! I believe this is a photo from the 1950's or early 1960's. The only reason I say that is because one of the gals on the left has one of those collapsible Polaroid Land Cameras. I wore the same kind of blue/gray gown with the hat with the point in the front when I graduated from High School in 1969. The heavy old gowns were kept in the old Civil Defense Shelter in the basement of the High School..they smelled of mothballs. We had to be fitted for our gowns and then take them home to press them.
Seventeen kids..I wonder if this is the entire class or just a small group of friends.

Photo Number 210
This one is the Hollyhock Girl, she also has a skinned knee or a birth mark. Her dress seems awfully short, perhaps she grew taller over the summer. Up here the Hollyhocks bloom at the end of the summer. I will guess that this photo was taken in the 1940's.
