My grandparents hug on a mountain. I’m not sure where this is, the other photos in the set show them traveling with a group of people. I know it’s blurry, but it touches me. This was taken in the 1940s.

A relative and my mother

A relative and my mother

Not sure who the woman with my mom is (my mom is the teenager), but I can clearly tell I am related to the woman.  (Photographer is most likely William H. Kramer)

Grandparents in the mountains

Grandparents in the mountains

I am fairly certain these are my Grandfather and Grandmother Kramer. They are in the mountains, although I am not sure where. This is from a series of photos where they are traveling in the mountains with a group of people (some of whom I think I vaguely recognize, though I may be making it up).

From the information on the slide, this was taken in the 1940s.

Aunt June and Uncle Carl

Aunt June and Uncle Carl

This is my great-aunt June and great-uncle Carl at their beach house in Michigan.  The beach house figured prominently in my grandparents’, parents’ and my generation’s lives.  My Aunt June still lives there;  she is Deluxe.

View from the plane

View from the plane

A picture from my dad.  This was processed in John Day, OR.  I have no idea where the plane is, not even which country (my father traveled a lot).

Fort Henry in Canada

Fort Henry in Canada

I don’t have any context on this one, it was jut in a box of slides that seemed to have a lot of vacation slides from my mother.

Just a 50s Christmas

Just a 50s Christmas

I think given the context from slides in the same container, this is actually in the very early 1960s. It’s likely taken in Chicago, where my family lived at that time.
