(the basic unit)
The Pittmans...
This is a photograph
of my immediate family standing
in front of our
Chevy Bel Air, circa 1954 or 55.
(from left to
right)
Adell Viola (my mother), Me (with the banana),
Cecilia Lynn (my older sister),
Mona Lee (my younger
sister), and Cecil Wilson (my father)
Here's the only other picture of just the five of
us that I can remember...
a West Texas farm couple
with their little group of ragamuffins...
My Siblings...
This is a picture
of the Pittman kids (from left to right)...
me,
Daniel Leon, my younger sister, Mona Lee, and my older sister,
Cecilia Lynn,
circa 1953 or 54, about five miles
outside of the town of Haskell, Texas,
which is
about 54 miles north of Abilene, the closest "metropolis"!
By the way, the full version of this picture gives
a good idea of
how far "out in the sticks"
we were on that farm.
PIG Farm?
Growing up on the
farm, we had to find our fun in simple things.
Here's
a picture of Cece and me as we happily wallowed in the mud like
little pigs
whenever the front yard flooded. If
you click on the image to see the
larger picture
you will clearly see the "mud-happy" grins on our faces!
My younger sister, Mona, decided to stay dry on
the porch on this particular day.
All dressed up...
Here are me,
my sister, Cecilia, and my cousin, Betty Ford sometime in the
late 1950's.
(No...not THAT Betty Ford, but that
WAS her name...it's Wilson now)
We were somewhere
in Texas that I don't remember.
Fashion...Innocence or Ignorance?
And
here is a photo taken of my dad and and my sisters and me
in San Diego in the early 1960's.
You
really should click on this image to see the complete photo.
It demonstrates the fashion statements that a farm
family can make in the "big city".
