Mother Looking PleasedПросмотров: 1157I think this was taken at Honolulu Airport. Note the luggage and my little travelling blazer: in those days we dressed up to take an airplane somewhere. I was already taking photographs: note the camera. I'd obviously done something to make my mother happy, since she has such a Happy Face. Not!

Craig in the Model Village - at 140 Dowsett AvenueПросмотров: 1156Playing in the back garden at 140 Dowsett Avenue in Nuuanu, creating my own little "model village," 1958. I can remember painting the clay pots to look like houses, and (of course) there was the obligatory running water. Didn't take long for it to turn into mud.

Nana, Baba, and MeПросмотров: 1155The thing I like best about this photograph, taken circa 1956, are our bare feet. I zoomed in on them with Photoshop, and they're pretty well worn. No wearing of house slippers for us --- bare feet!

Nana Reading A MagazineПросмотров: 1131I am guessing that Baba took this photograph. I must have inherited this trait from him: I love annoying Marjorie by taking her photograph in bed, when she's trying to read or relax.

Shirley and John Walsh on the steps of Leland Powers SchoolПросмотров: 1119My parents met at Leland Powers in Boston. I don't know if this is a school photograph or not. The mystery, at least to me, is what happened to the person above my father whose face has been scraped away? My mother Shirley is on the lowest step (left) and my father John Walsh on the same step (right). One of my mother's friends from Hawaii, Barbara (Bappy) Pickup, is sitting on the top step. Circa 1948.

Honolulu AirportПросмотров: 1101I can only guess at the date of this photograph -- late 1950's or early 1960's. The old Honolulu Airport terminal is behind the PanAm airplane. I love the PanAm attendants doing things at the gate itself. No air bridges. My father with Nana: not sure who's going where.

Pushing A Lawn MowerПросмотров: 1082The Health and Safety people would be thrilled to see me pushing what appears to be a gas-operated lawn mower --- with no shoes. Makes my toes curl even now, over half a century later.

Newleyweds - 1948Просмотров: 1078My father and mother, shortly after they arrived in Hawaii -- having been married in Nevada on their drive across the country from Boston. I love the cigarette in the hand.
