Dolph

This is a picture of Dolph with his handle bar mustache. It was taken between 1952 and 1956. 1956 is when he got out of the Navy.
 
 
 

This picture was taken after we were married. He was working at Graves Music, but I don't know if it was in the Albany or the Eugene store. I notice that he had added a few pounds since the Navy picture was taken!

More Slides...







This was taken of Karen and Eric when we lived on E. 24th Street in Albany (before 1970). We lived across the street from the grade school. I made Karen's dress. I made one like it for me, but there are no pictures of us together. That's probably because it looked better on Karen.

Another fish picture of May and Adolph. I notice that May caught the BIG fish and she looks pleased!

Karen & Colleen




Karen and her friend, Colleen Beggs. Taken about 1968 (second grade?) when we lived in Albany.

Fishing Runs In The Family!






 These were probably taken on one of our camping trips to a mountain lake...probably Detroit Lake...as that was a favorite camping spot for us.

We have lots of fishing pictures...with two granddads (and one grandma!) that liked nothing better than fishing, Eric definitely inherited the fishing gene. I don't see Karen out fishing a lot...she probably inherited her gene from me!



Big Fish!

 Adolph, May and Dolph after one of their deep sea fishing trips.
Adolph and May, after they bought the cabin at Seal Rock, went deep sea fishing almost every week. I think it cost $7 each to go. I went a few times, but it was a total loss of $7, because I don't really like to fish and ocean going boats aren't high on my list either! We ate a lot of salmon. They had most of it canned, but it was really good barbecued. I would appreciate it a lot more now than I did then.
