Morning bath - 10 Sept.
Ah yes, if you go way, way back in this blog, you'll find a similar picture of Tom getting a table-bath. Since that's Joe in the background, I'm guessing this is Tim in the tub. I don't recognize the room, so I'm thinking this is 232, not 234.

Grammy & Tim - mid-April 1958
Aonther great pic. Grandpa Ludwig would be proud of it. I do recall that little wall of cement dividing 232 and 234.
.
Tim has his toy gun, but there's always time for a snack from Grammy. In the background are (I think) towels hung out by Grammy. I had forgotten about that. And the shadows in the foreground indicate the 232 wash lines are right behind the photographer.
.
Finally, it's the middle of April and people have sweaters and coats on. Yeah, you can tell this wasn't taken in Phoenix.

Xmas at Grammy's - 1957
Oh my, where to start on this one. The peeps first, I s'pose. I'm assuming that's Tim on the right. I can identify everyone else, except the lady in the foreground with her back to the camera. Ellen, perhaps?
.
That being said, there are some missing people. Hazel, Chuck, (Uncle) John, Joe, and Mick. So was there a second table set up somewhere?
.
Third, this is a fantastic shot to remember what Grammy's kitchen used to look like. I definitely remember that black sink in the right background, and those cupboards above them that seemed to go all the way to the ceiling. I draw a blank on the fridge, but I do recall that license plate on the wall beside it. And the two windows on either side of the fridge.
.
I also remember those two knickknacks on the wall to the left. A Pennsylvania Dutch man and woman, and I'm pretty sure whatever was written around them was in Pa. Dutch too. I can't tell you what that knickknack is between the two Dutch peeps; nor what those two white things are, running vertically just to the right of the knickknacks. Finally, I can't tell you what the peencil-sharpener-looking handle is, behind John's head.
.
The Christmas meal has commenced, so why is the photographer's plate still clean? And please note, you won't find the milk carton on the table. Not at Grammy's house.

Mick's Birthday - 1958
A neat picture to blow up and study the details. The windows in the building in the background have me puzzled. Is this 234, 232, or at Charlie & Hazel's house?
.
On the table we have the birthday cake, and I think a slice or two taken out of it. But where are those slices? Leaning on the knife are the two matches that were used to light the candles. Behind that is a rollerskate. I'm not quite sure what that is coming off the skate towards the cake.
.
The box on the left had me stumped for a while, but I now think it's the matchbox.
