Aside from "synchronized sitting", my dad and his friend Wilburn were pretty good at wrestling alligators, too.
This photo hung on the wall at my dad's service station for many years... hence the writing of their nicknames on the print. A testament to a couple of friends and good travels.

Christmas morning, 1959 - My dad and mom open a gift at a gathering with her family.
Mom and her two sisters, and all of their husbands stayed overnight with my grandparents on Christmas Eve, and shared presents and had breakfast together on Christmas morning.
This was taken, most likely, by my grandmother... and is my favorite Christmas photo of any that my family has.

Some of the best memories from when I was a boy involve times that we got together with mom's sister and her family. I looked forward to these gatherings so much.
Dad and I are on the left, with Dave in the back. Then my grandmother (standing), and Dave's sister and parents. Mom, of course, is taking the photo.
I notice here that my dad is wearing his Gulf shirt. It was not uncommon at all for him to come straight from work to these events. I liked that he smelled like engine oil, tires, and gasoline. I always wanted to smell like that when I grew up , too.
