Ole Larson's Folks

Here is a video from the very first reel of my parents’ home movies. The year is 1948. Most or all of the clip is from a camping trip to the Mt. St. Helens area.

The dog is one of Harry Truman’s. In case you didn’t follow the Mt. St. Helens saga, Harry Truman (not the President of that name), obstinately stayed at his lodge in 1980, and was buried alive by the eruption, along with his dogs, the same breed as the one in the video. Of course the toddler on the snowbank is yours truly.

Other featured performers are my Dad (of course), Aunt Audrey, baby David, Joyce, Linda, Uncle Delmont, and Uncle Vernon (?- may be Ivan) roasting his sock. Enjoy.
