The Welkom Garden


Our beautiful garden in Welkom has featured in so many blog posts, so by popular acclaim here is a photo - my dear cousin had treasured this photo for many years. Dad took the photo (his hobby was photography, he was a wedding photographer when not underground at the mine, and he and mom ran a photography shop for a while). I proudly helped Dad deckle the edges. Family members and friends are in the photo; Mom is kneeling, and Aunt Elly is wearing the glamorous sunglasses. Aunt Elly has her left arm around me, and I am wearing my beautiful brown suede dress with buckle straps (have never seen buckle straps like that again), short blonde hair and a pixie smile.
Those were the days. . .
