Well, maybe I have it together now. From Reatha’s home movies, Summer of 1957, at home in Longview. Same occasion as the still photo I posted earlier. Incidentally, this was the last all-inclusive Larson reunion. The digitized movies came out clearer than they show up here. The added graininess is from compressing the files for Internet use.
Please let me know if these won’t play for you. Next one is of each son’s family.
Finally, another clip from the same summer, different occasion. I think it’s my 10th birthday party. Definitely my first guitar – I couldn’t play a note, but seemed to have the Elvis thing (or was it Buddy Holly?) down pat.
I’m digitizing highlights from all of Mom’s movies and videos. Currently up to 1968 (the first 20 years), about 2 hours of highlights that I had already selected and spliced back in 1981. About 30 years left to go, probably 100-200 hours to review and select from. If you like these, I’ll be posting some more.
Shades of the past!!! Everyone looked so YOUNG. And of course we were young. Even our dads looked like kids. The memories are flooding in non-stop.
Thanks George–you are out-doing yourself!!! Love from Cousin Lois
Brings a tear to my eye. Hard to believe we were ever that young. ’57 would put me at 2 years old.
Thanks for all your hard work.

Good home videos. Hope you keep adding to them. Thanks, Uncle I.
