I just love the expression on Jack’s face!  I suspect this might be at Depoe Bay?  Its from October 1953

I’m looking like I’m ready for my nap, or i just woke up from it!  This is Aunt Jack’s front porch in Warrenton.

Must be late in 1957?  Jack was born in 1881, which would make her 76 here.

Ah, look who’s the center of attention!

Helen and Clark, Mom, Reba and Aunt Jack. Evidently no strawberry short cake for me?  Nap time? It’s almost like I was never there!

 

IMG_9844bThe owls that Aunt Jack made are still hanging in there, a bit worse for wear, but they reappear each Christmas, and find a safe spot deep within the branches of our tree.  These are an example of decorations older than I am!

Summer 1964

Helen and Clark’s yard was always a marvel.  Here they are with the dahlias.

That looks like Helen, Jack and Reba picking flowers:

Aunt Jack’s house, on South Main, in Warrenton.  The house was built by her sister Lulu (Aunt Lu) and Gavin Catto.  Aunt Jack was Leona Wible.  This is what the house looked like in 1999.

These pictures below were taken in 2012.  Obviously someone was fixing it up.  The sun porch is now closed off.

You can understand from these pictures why I will miss that porch! I don’t remember the inside of the house.

Summer of 1960 picnic near Saddle Mountain.  Helen, Aunt Jack, Reba, Marie and Clark.

img104 img103 img102I’ll let someone else fill in all the names of the relatives! Is that Kathy with Clark?  Marie, Lina and Will, I suspect.  I’d be guessing with the rest.
