“Here ‘SHE’ comes on her very own Scooter”
“How’s this… for some “High Flying” travel in the 1940’s?”
This next PHOTO… is just an old antique scooter in color – – not mine – – but so that my “Grand-Daughter” will know – – that – “when I was a little girl – – everything was not only… all in black and white” – – – – when she was very little – – and I would watch old movies – – and they were all in “black and white” – – SHE ask me… “Is that the way you remember everything… only black and white?” – It was difficult to explain – – about the world always in color – – but the “FILM Industry” during the WWII – – had to economize – – like everyone else in those days – – and that is the way it was.
That is “baby TOMMY” with me… and behind us – – the window is really the focal point of these PHOTOS – – as one day – – “TOMMY” did climb up and into the “window sill” – – and just too close to the “Window screen” – – “TOMMY and screen” fell out and to the ground below.
“Emergency” vesicles were called… and “TOMMY” was taken to the HOSPITAL – – nothing wrong with him – – nothing broken – – no damage… because – – for two to three days prior – – we had continuous rain – – and the ground was so wet and soft – – all he needed was a good bath!
This is a real good “close-up” of TOMMY” – – He sure does look good and healthy – – after taking such a fall out of the window – – the terrible and decrepit condition of the window screens.
BUT… that was but only the first of many “falls” for TOMMY – – so I am guessing that is “WHY” he is tagged with the nick-name, “MR. WONDERFUL” – – – after all – – to still have the very same big smile and good looks – – and a superior brain – – what more could a guy… ask for?
As you can see… I always have some “FAST and FURIOUS” transportation – – to keep up with little… TOMMY – – who is now – – today … over six feet tall – – and still keeping everyone on their toes – – as to what he will be doing … NEXT! D.V.
