Another in the Canadian vacation series. I am seated on the bench with my mother and my Indian doll; my towheaded brother is looking away from the camera, and my oldest brother (on the left) is sporting a very spiffy fair-isle sweater. I only have vague memories of these Canadian vacations, but it is lovely to have the photos.

Another scanned photo from the family archives: this one is circa the summer of 1956 and was taken near Lake Temagami, Ontario, Canada. My brother is in the background on the porch of the cabin and I am proudly showing off my new doll.
