Hi Buddy, I was thinking about your mom this weekend as I made sweet potatoes with Pecans on top. This is a great picture, it looks like Sutherland Park. Sue
Hello Sue, and thanks for stopping by. I kinda wondered if those were the sweet potatoes you were making. For such a skinny little lady, she sure loved sugar on stuff :) Good guess with Sutherland Park but it is actually the large park that was outside of Mayfair Pool. Number 7 bus headed directly to Mayfair Pool, which was the furthest city pool away from us. We didn't have to transfer and so we always went there for a summer day. Sometimes mom and dad would meet us in the park for a picnic dinner after work. This is me wrapped up in two sweaters 'cause I was so cold after getting out of the pool. She was a cool mom!
Me too... Such a telling photo you selected to post here. Gayle was a such a beautiful lady inside and outside - very fond memories. Just last month I visited our old home on Cedar Island where I first met your mom as a wee girl. I still pictured her sitting out on the lawn with me looking rather like this. Love from A.Kim
