 Julie, Elsa, Jef - perhaps Jef's 7th birthday? I think this was my birthday party at grandma and grandpa's. Think there's about 7 candles on cake.
| I often visited grandma and grandpa on dad's side. Here I am at their Inglewood house. 
| Jef remembers going into the wilderness with dad and cousin Roy. Somewhere in a rough, rocky road driving in the Impala convertible, we scraped bottom and my dad soon asked "Jef do you have any bubble gum?". I pulled out some gum in the shape of a cigar. He said "that'll do. now chew it". I remember he took it and went underneath the car. He later told this story: "After a long weekend, one of our office,diplayed a handful of obsidian spear tips. He said he found them exploring an Indian cave far up a canyon off Saline Valley. He sketched a map for us showing how to get to that cave. He said there was a lot more stuff up there,but he needed a ladder to get to the higher caves and he didn't have time. The next week, our family went up there with a ladder. About half way up the canyon,we punched a small hole in the bottom of our gas tank and had to turn back. In the office the next Monday, I was telling him of our trouble, and he laughed, and explained...."I took a course at the local night school on how to make spear heads. . . ."" | |||||
