Thinking of Old Friends

I found a few more pictures of some of the family pets we had when I was a kid. For Christmas in 1971 my sister got Bonnie, our Silky Terrier, and I got a Kodak Instamatic camera. I made good use of that camera, and many of the pictures I took have survived over the years. The problem is they are not centrally located, a problem I am going to correct soon.

In any event, I want to share a couple of pictures of my favorite little Silky Terrier, Bonnie, and her Siamese friend, Tinkerbell.

Here's an old shot I took of Tinkerbell and Bonnie having lunch together on the porch behind my parents house probably around 1972. This area is now a family room.
Another shot of their lunch together. Bonnie is eating out of a frozen pie tin. Tinkerbell's dish is an old pot pie tin.
I believe this is Bonnie's second Christmas at the house. She is getting her present from under the tree. She loved that rawhide bone so much I think she never finished it intentionally. Check that classy footwear in the foreground. I was wearing the highest quality suead shoes Kinney's had in stock.
That weird looking thing next to Bonnie was her favorite toy. She LOVED to play tug-o-war with anyone who had the patience. Posted by Jeff at March 10, 2005 8:38 AM
