Photos depicting my childhood, taken in the 60s and early 70s, from sister Nancy's album
Summer of '66: Out behind Grandma & Grandpa Gifford's house in West Tisbury, Massachusetts - That's me on the left, David in the middle, and our cousin Brad on the right.
The whole family (from left): George, David, Dad, Mom, Nancy, Jim, and Kenny (me). This picture was taken in January or February 1968, around my sixth birthday. As memory serves, my friend Mark took the picture. Behind us looms the garage of 1211 Meadowlawn Blvd., Parma 34, Ohio.
On the fence: Mark with me in the backyard, March 31, 1968.
Gay Head Lighthouse takes center stage - But on the left that's me with Dad (and David hiding behind him), in the summer of '68 (Gay Head, Massachusetts).
Some time that same summer, here I am with brother George on the steps of our Uncle William's house in Amherst, Massachusetts.
This was the summer of '69, and I apparently needed to find a restroom, as I stood atop a Berkshire observation tower with Dad, Mom, and David.
Nancy's camera finds us next atop the Gifford House, on the widow's walk (summer of '69, West Tisbury, Massachusetts).
This picture was taken circa early 1970, so it's around my eighth birthday, as I pose with Teddy.
Taking a break from me, I included this picture of David from the summer of '72. (As always, he had the window.)
On the beach: Here we are together, David & I, after the Disney World trip - late December of '72 (Daytona Beach, Florida). Those were my first glasses, alas.
Spring of '74 (est.) - Here's Wolf, and me turning into a gangly adolescent (but with cooler glasses, anyway). We're on the driveway of 1211 Meadowlawn, Parma, Ohio.
