Memories of the Old House: Family Stories in Faded Photographs
The history of the house is interesting to view from photographs. Around the table are my brother Bob just wearing a casual shirt and shorts (smiling), Annie wearing a T-Shirt and shorts. Mike wearing a white shirt and long nylon trousers not smiling, Mary, whom I couldn't tell what she was wearing, my Mom, her white hair and her beautiful blue eyes and smile, was wearing a peach blouse and slacks, my Dad wasn't alive for this photo, he died in 1986. Lastly in the picture is my brother John, wearing a white vest, trousers and suspenders. He slicked back his black hair for the photo to appear in the period style. He wasn't smiling either. The only difference is that my cottage is painted brown with a larger porch and some additional buildings. My father loved to build things and he was constantly improving the cabin. He built a deck downstairs, and also a dock for his many boats. He also designed a gliding swing and a picnic table.
从照片中追溯这座房子的历史颇有意趣。围着桌子的是我哥哥鲍勃，他只穿着休闲衬衫和短裤（微笑着）；安妮穿着T恤和短裤；迈克穿着白衬衫和长尼龙裤不苟言笑；玛丽（我无法分辨她的穿着）；我母亲（白发、美丽的蓝眼睛和笑容）穿着桃色衬衫和休闲裤；我父亲没出现在这张照片中，他1986年去世了。最后是弟弟约翰，穿着白色背带裤配吊带裤。他为拍摄特意将黑发梳成复古油头，同样没有笑容。唯一不同的是我的小屋被漆成棕色，门廊更大并增建了附属建筑。父亲热爱建造，不断改进木屋。他建造了楼下平台、多个船坞，还设计了滑动秋千和野餐桌。
