I recently rediscovered my favorite family photo of all time. this was taken by my Mom in the backyard of our home in Romeoville, IL. The date stamp is Oct. '67, but may not be accurate as Mom had a bad habit of letting the film rolls pile up before taking them in to be developed. that's me (w/Gilligan hat), sister Lisa (being oh so dramatic), Duchess (the collie & best dog EVER, 6 months old) & brother Steve (the "L" stands for Lockport, I think). what you're not seeing, but would from our viewpoint, is the horse barn & corral that we had in the back yard, which held Abbey the horse & Pepper & Sunshine, the ponies. at that period in time, this area was still very rural. now it's the heart of Suburbia.
