It's time to dig into the scrapbook of Weber photos again. This photo of my grandmother, Tillie (Kuhn) Weber, with two of her children seems to portray a carefree day. Tillie has a beautiful smile on her face as they all relax for a while during a trip to wherever. And Bob is smiling lovingly at his mother. Gin, like a teenager, just waits for the photo to be over.
I know this was a day they were out enjoying a park because there are other pictures that match this one where they're hiking up a hill and taking a walk through a park. There doesn't seem to be any identification of the exact location. The photo is taken about 1938 when Gin was 18 and Bob was 24. Judging from their clothing it's a cool day, maybe in the spring when they were anxious to get out for a while and visit one of the Indiana parks. Maybe Aunt Clara, Tillie's sister, came along and is the photographer this time.
Thanks again to Uncle Bob for saving a Weber photo that speaks volumes!
Glad you stopped by at Indiana Ties,
Nancy
