Have seen them so many times that I think I have the black and the white ones etched in my brain. My favorite lake name where I grew up in Iowa is Lake Okoboji. Lots of old Indian names there. Your mother is lovely... she appears to be about my mother's age at that time.

I know that there are folks here on the lake who bought in the 50s and 60s.

Did you have a photographer in the family? I ask because you have such a good selection of vintage family photographs. Our family had a collection not so good vintage photos. :D<BR/><BR/>Funny that the new owners would've built all around the smaller cottage. Did your uncle take a photo of that?Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160371074353452445.post-42060251350127819522008-10-19T05:07:00.000-07:002008-10-19T05:07:00.000-07:00Ok, in the South we have some pretty fun place nam...Ok, in the South we have some pretty fun place names...Wetumpka comes to mind, for example, but I've always thought those in the northermost states were really fun names. Probably because I'm not familiar with them. Nippersink, indeed. <BR/><BR/>And what a wonderful picture.

Your mom is PRETTY! So thin - her little waste makes me SO jeaolous. My granny says that the dress's they wore made their shapes look beter because the were well fitted.... :)Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16327157455249207495noreply@blogger.com
