A villa on the water.

Sometimes, black and white can make water look spectacular. Maybe it was taken in a low lying boat, or it could be on a shore bank. Either way, They got a good perspective. I'm no architect, but the buildings don't look north american. It could just be a style. Wherever it is, It looks like a wonderful place to relax.
This is part of an eBay lot of 300 photos. To see others from that collection, click the "300" tag.

Summer fling

Before the rivers and ponds all freeze over for winter, lets have a little feeling of summer. lying on a beach, listening to the tide roll in and out. This looks more like a lake, judging by the tree life. It could be anywhere. No help from the back. Wherever it was, we can assume they had fun.

Off for a good old hike


Now that school is over and summer is officially here, its time to enjoy the sun and take a walk. I have no idea where these were taken. It sure must have been fun though. another thing that's hard to figure out is the date. I'm guessing the early 50s based on the wardrobe of the lady in the first picture, but the people on the top look older than that.

On a raft in lake

This is one of those photos that becomes so much better when you read the caption. They're certainly in the lake. This was originally written in pink pen, but is not visible in the scan. This look to be taken in the late 20s or 30s, just based on the swimwear. You have to wonder what happened to this family though the great depression. Did they survive? Or did they go bankrupt? We'll probably never know for sure.
