Donkey Basketball

So I am pulling some pictures out of the big box and come across this. What in the ????? My first instinct was to google "Donkey Basketball" and will you look at that! No details on the back of the photo's so I will await a response from Ed and/or Mauri if they remember anything from this.

Winter time from the back porch

What year was the house behind the garage tore down?

Summertime from the back porch

I guess maybe I took this picture in happiness that I was not mowing the grass instead? It's nice to see all that grass instead of a parking lot now.

Etch A Sketch

Lauri seems a bit dazed in this photo or she is already mesmerized by the wonder of the Etch A Sketch. These were still made in Bryan, OH up until 2001 it seems. It's still in the house fascinating her kids right?

Skinny hallway

From the house/apartment that Obe and Ed lived in in England. Written on the back - Opening between kitchen and living room - 08/13/70

Of all the pictures to have an exact date!

Emails enabled.

Hey! You all get emails now when I post or when a comment is made. If you would prefer that I take you off the list just let me know!

Aww cute little Muffin

Muffin as a puppy. What year did we get her? 1983? 84'?

Sorry Lauri

Is this a "Look, I'm skinny again" picture?

Old Cars

No idea what this one is about or where it is from, however the shot is perfectly placed with the tree in the center. I am thinking this from the Fremont/Angola IN area.

Laura resting

Laura Marshall at her home of the time. Any idea what year this is?

Also this is the 100th picture posted from the big box.

Waves

I was not going to post this but I couldn't help myself. What is with the background in this photo? There is a description on the back of the photo but I cannot decipher all of it. It starts with "This is Loren's folks and mom..."

I'll wait for the rest from one of you.

Mmmmm Wedding Cake

Barb and Bill's wedding reception, September of 1983. I remember this because I was upset that I was going to miss the first Skylark dance. Yeah, I didn't miss much.

One more ISU pic

From the back - My roommate, Rich Hassler by the door.

Did you ever keep in touch with these guys over the years?

Annual Brickell School Halloween parade

Lauri could be in this picture due to the two Strawberry Shortcake outfits. If you remember any details let me know so I can post them when I put this on the Brickell Facebook page.

Turkey Day!

Todd, Lauri, Obe, and Laura from Thanksgiving 82' or 83'. The turkey looks a little small and I do spy the cranberry salad in there as well. Man I hated that cranberry salad.

Another Indiana State Pic

From the back of the photo - This is Paul Wallingford, my other roommate. He's on the swimming team.

From 67' or 68'

Jean and her dolls

More Christmas 84' I think.

Hello cuffed jeans

Todd, Halli, and Wendi Xmas of 84'

Ohh Sparkly!

Espirit!! I am thinking this is 1984.

The big box consists of 25% Christmas pics, 25% wedding Pics, 25% baby/child pics, and 25% of everything else. I'm just saying.

Fight the power!

From the back of the photo - This is Ray Herring, another one of my roommates. Ray's a Black Nationalist and he says "I love you."

No year written on the back but I'm guessing 67' or 68'.

This is a great photo. I love the "Uncola" poster behind Ray. Do you remember this guy?

Wendi and Doug's Reception

Wendi and Doug with Lauri crashing the photo op. So what were the details here? What was the year? Was this the first wedding? Was there a ceremony? Look forward to your comments.

Also let me repeat my earlier post. I'll try to post a few more before I leave for the weekend.

Doug and Jean

This is the only picture from this set that has a description on the back. "Doug Messner and Jean"

Care to share a memory with us Jean?

Grandma Stock?

No idea who the guy on the left is. Is that Grandma Stock in red?

Wendi and friends

Hi Wendi, why don't you tell us about your old friends here?

Joyce and others

Let's see... I recognize Jean, Joyce, myself, and Lauri. I think it's Wendi or Halli with the bow in their hair so that leaves 3 others unidentified. Who is mystery hat man?
