Bonanza

This is one of my Pittsburgh pictures. Here are my daughter, my son's fiance, my son, and my husband walking away from me to the park.
This reminds me of the show Bonanza, where the three sons and old Ben, the dad, came riding at the screen all together. They were always united in one purpose. I have an Arizone picture where my three children were small and they are walking away down another path. It is one of my favorite pictures.
Once, the five people in my immediate family were walking side by side to a restaurant. I sang the Bonanza theme. It was jolly.
What I get from these pictues, whether they go forward or towards the camera, whether I'm in them or not, is the sense of family. We are united. We love each other. Next time your family is all in a line, think of your Bonanza moment and rejoice. Nancy

  6. O.K., you guys. Little Joe was the best. I liked them all, even Adam, but we probably tuned in for that great smile.

  7. fun Picture. I have to say I never watched Bonanza! I love to take family vacation pics. Probably my favorite is Mitch being kissed by a dolphin with this funny grin on his face.I smile when I think of it. I tease him about his first kiss being by a dolphin and a boy one at that!!
