1960sb

The decade 1960 had more pictures
taken than any other during our marriage.
After all, we were in a new life.
Two children growing up and changing, it seemed, every month.
Vacations at the Winnataska cottage, exploring the United States.
Richard and Kathleen working and enjoying their children.

This page is the second of three pages
of pictures of this decade.
I hope we all enjoy the pictures
and stories found in
McDFamily1.com.

Alan David is not positive the 1969 date is correct but it will stand until we search our data. These two pictures of the 1969 Wadsworth Day Parade are not as sharp as they should be.
This was Alan's first parade.  I did not remember ever seeing a wagon being moved with this power train at one of the parades.  But I see it now




Keith Baumgardner, Alan and Donald Yarrow.  Tinker Toy constructions?

I like the picture even though I have wondered where it was taken,(MCDFORD ?)

Alan and Susan are sharing a swing.

<<<<< Wrightsville beach, NC A very nice Vacation Beach,to spend
a few days swimming and site seeing, A near disaster happened
on our last day, Both of us keeping under control saved the day.
We were a good team,as usual. Not sure of the date, but early
in our marriage, We went back to the beach 20-30 years
later without a clear reason. We were near the beach and thought
it wa the thing to do. We did not stay long.
