Old Trunks wonders just what the occasion was on this day. There are several pictures taken at the same time. Is it possible this was a birthday celebration for Thorinus? Can trees still have leaves in October?
Richard was born in June, he had a big party on his birthday in 1946; his brother, Robert had a party when he turned five. We know that from reading old newspapers. Yet, why would kids be dressed so warmly June or August? Perhaps we can't find the answers. Perhaps we have to say how wonderful it is to see another four generation picture, taken, perhaps at random. We do know from viewing the other pictures that one of pictures is taken with Sylvia, Thornius' grand daughter and Carl's daughter. The pictures appear to be taken at the Mellem house.
Let's post all the pictures taken that day on a post script blog. It will give you an opportunity to look at back grounds and come to your own conclusions.
