    Some more photo's of Uncle Joe, the first two are unusual poses for the era, either the photographer was very creative & pushed the boundaries or Uncle Joe wanted portfolio pictures for a modelling career.
    Third photo taken later with my Father & his siblings.

      These are great. I love your Aunts' dresses. I'm guessing the modeling career never panned out for Uncle Joe?

      Thanks scandi, have been but I don't know. He was a carpenter & owned timber property in Mission BC. Thanks for asking I was very troubled by what happened yesterday & wasn't sure what might happen today & had thought about staying away for a couple of days.
      This community has become a place to share my favourite things with my friends who appreciate them as much as I do.

      Regards

      @scandi THANK YOU, there is another old saying that I try to live by " if you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all"

      Ahh! witter: to chatter or babble pointlessly or at unnecessary length. n. pointless chat; chatter. [from dialect; compare twitter] ...

      @ hedgewalker, let's just put yesterday behind us & continue to enjoy this community, thanks for your response.
      @scandi (with smile on my face humour in my tone), I thought we spoke the same English language. lol :) note to self look up definition of twaddle & rabbit

      @ scandi I've been know to babble on endlessly about some obscure topic that no one else really cares about.
