brothers

dad and mel

russ, tom, and willie

Seeing uncle mel reminded me so much of my dad...it was alot of fun..

dad and mel with friends

mel told some fun stories of dad and his growing up years...

how dad won an extra dollar when he was caddying by playing craps with the boys...

grandma wasn't happy about that...

scouts

how dad taught the bully of the neighborhood a lesson..by beating him up!mel, dad, allan and uncles
it sounds like they were hoodlums!

but, what a fun life they had...

they didn't have any money..but, they did so much with so little...

bagley boys

then, i started thinking of these 2 brothers...

willie and russ

i watched them grow up...they were fun...

willie, russ and ty

willie was the sweet (well, until later, then willie started torturing russ) older brother

that russ wanted to follow everywhere...

  1. it's fun to remember those days when brothers are best friends and together think of all kinds of trouble they can get into.

  3. I always love it when you post "old" photos. It is wonderful to know more about you and your family.
