Throwback Thursday

From 2. July 2015


4. July 1987. In the shopping center parking lot, lining up for the town Fourth of July parade. Dad was voted one of the Seniors of the Year by the Natick Council on Aging. The Nephew got to ride in the float car, too.

Dad loved that sport coat. Somewhere there was a Volkswagen Beetle without seat covers.

  3. That is a great photo. It brings back those 1960 memories to me. The suit jacket, the car. The styles at that time are something else. Hugs-Erika

    1. That sports jacket was one of his favorites. Ma and I used to cringe when he would wear it.

    1. You have to admit the pattern on the jacket looks like car seat covers.
