Ediger Christmas at Pete & Marie's house in Hampton

this was me
around 1965
in the mauve sweater
that was in my
bowling trophy picture.
The blonde in the foreground
on the right is marlene
and on the left is my cousin
Lauren from California.
Uncle Ardean and Aunt Gretchen
are sitting on the far side of the room
near the attractive lamps.

the family portrait in front of the linoleum background covered by curtains

this is me
in red
I never wear red
making the best
of the awkward
job of looking
happy
that we are all in one place

for a dinner
or birthday
being held
in the sitting room
(picture taking room)

this is a rare look
from the skelley side
of the house
on thirteenth street
a mere gravel driveway
which became landscaped
with green grass
and bushes
the old treehouse
in the maple tree
is easy to see
from this picture
