A Family Tradition

***
Hil and I come from a tradition of no traditions.
Family portraits - what are those?
That may explain, in part, my fondness for picture taking.

Starting way back in junior high, when my cousin Alyson would visit from Santa Cruz, we would take strip after strip of pictures in the photo booth at Woolworths. We also spent a little time and a few coins in the picture booths at the Boardwalk when I would visit her. I need to track down my portion of those memories.

One year not so long ago, Hilary, Lauren and I took some "family portraits" in a photo booth at the State Fair to give to our parents. Since then, that has been my reason for attending the fair year after year. I'll hunt for those, too.

Based on this year's results, I have a feeling our children might not carry on our State Fair photo booth tradition.
