Sepia Saturday

This is my contribution to this weeks Sepia Saturday Theme.
This is a black and white photograph taken by my 
older brother Jerry sometime in the mid to late 50's. 
It comes from a Hopkins Family Reunion.
  I was in attendance but do not remember this moment.
I think it most likely is a state park in Texas 
maybe Lake Bonham State Park.  
These are some of the Hopkins Girls "chillin" 
on a hot August afternoon.

  6. What a great photo, of a moment that likely would not have been remembered by anyone otherwise.

  7. Is that a pair of shorts out there on the right? First prize for the match.

  8. What a great match. Only missing the little boys.

  9. Maybe the waders have hitched their skirts a tad higher? I see knees and thighs. A decade later we were burning our bras!

  10. Well. we obviously weren;t a paddling family. It was a case of all in or all out (of the water). So I am admiring all the amazing photos other Sepians are presenting.

  11. Perfect match, and some of the hats the hats are interesting too.

  12. Agree with all about about your good match - but I think your people look like they are enjoying themselves more.

  13. A fine match! And a family photograph!

  14. Indeed a perfect match but I think someone had to persuade them that it was worth a photo.

  15. They look as though they were having fun - and no splashing or shoving? do you think the peak-y sun hat is an impromptu one made from a magazine?

  16. I can hear the photographer now, "Up to your knees ladies, just up to your knees." I imagine there was a lot of laughter.

  17. As everyone else commented, that's such a perfect match to the photo prompt this week, even the hats.
