Happy Birthday Morris

The guy on the left would have turned 97 today. He was never very enthusiastic about being in Kittery, he was much too caught up with his academic circle in Cambridge, but fill the house with children and grandchildren who loved each other and he positively glowed. He was also willing to put up with a great deal if it it made mom happy which this place always did and he did enjoy the opportunity for long walks this place affords. Here we are in the kitchen with a very little Cecelia and a much less grey version of myself.



Here he is on a walk in the neighborhood with a colleague in the mid 50's

    Assuming Cutts Island, but truing to figure exactly where. Width or road makes me think private road, but "summer water" line looks more "main" road on the Island. Help?

Back in the city for a few days, the "clip show"

Back in Cambridge for a couple of days so Cecelia and her pals can spend a weekend in Kittery Point and so I can have a socially distanced  Amp Club meeting down here. As anyone who has blogged will tell you, one of the problems is to keep the momentum going, hence the large numbers of abandoned blogs floating around the 'net (including a few of my own). I finding Im really enjoying the long format writing that blogging allows, so to keep things going I'm going to post some of the better photos so far this summer that you may have seen on that "social media platform". In TV this would be called a "clip show".
