Some more lost photos .

I was sent these photos of Don taken when he was about 14/15. I made contact with some mates he knew in Port Hedland recently and the upshot was these photos and a couple of phone calls.

Don spoke about this time as being one of the happiest when he was a kid and for me these photos are another blessing. I thought I had every photo left...and now this extra...

Don is second from left in the group of four. The one taken on the beach is a lot clearer if you click on it...


I guess had we had a son he might have looked like this, or maybe like my dad...who can tell. both our daughters are so different from each other, but yet the same. I guess if there were 10 kids in a family they would all be different.


I had a phone call from the girl on the right...she would be 59 now. We had a long talk about things and she said one thing which I can give to the girls,,,She said she remembered that Don was a gentleman...not bad for a 15year old...thats not to say he was backwards....

Old pictures are such a wonderful treasure - such good memories they bring to mind.
