That's a great photo. Wonder if you asked around if someone in her family might know something about it.

 

I've got some that I posted years ago here that I'll see if I can find.

Early 60's Lake Nipissing, Hinchburger Bay. I think that's my grandfather.

 

My dad, same place and time.

 

Grandma and grandpa

 

Not sure on the date, but likely mid to late 60's

 

 

My dad's 2 older brothers. That Evinrude (on the dock) sat around the cottage for most of the 70's and the early 80's before getting put back on to a transom of a Giesler cederstrip in the late 80's. If I can a photo of that I'll post it too.

Can't find the photo of the brought-back-to-life evinrude but I did find these.

 

Me and my brother, I'm the taller one . 1978

 

 

My "big" pike when I was 2/3(?). For years afterward I would talk about that pike and would always stretch my arms as far apart as they could go to say how big it was or say "It was as tall as me."

i tried, but most of them are sadly passed on. I got some family to tell stories but their conflicting. Some say at the time of this pic the river was lush with lake trout. But no one can even confirm that this was on the river, although it is highly likely. Awesome pics guys! Ill take these pics over the modern ones. Each pic just has me wondering about the stories behind them, just awesome!
