In the kitchen of Aunt Jean and Uncle Lloyd's house in San Leandro on New Year's Day, 1/1/68. The lower picture shows Sue's engagement ring.
I might have left that evening to return to LAX. Mike recalls that I took a Western Airlines Electra back from Oakland airport to LAX because he remembers me telling him all about the colorful and comfortable lounge on the Western Elecktra. I only vaguely remember any of that. Between us two old friends, we have a pretty complete memory of what we did in our lives back then. Otherwise, without one another, we'd have large blank spots in our recollection of what we did in those days. What I don't recall is whether or not either of us had our cars at this date, my mom's white four-door Rambler, or Mike his cream-colored Dodge two-door sedan. No photographs equal no recollection. But sometime during 1968, with both did acquire our first cars.
