My Grandfather took these shots at the Lake Saranac "Winter Festival" in 1902 in upstate New York.
He lived and worked there for a couple of years with my Aunt Brenda.
(n.b.The audio at the moment is Jackson Browne)
The family rumour was that my grandfather spent some of his time in The States "Prospecting for gold". I really don't know about that! (sounds like bollocks to me!) But who knows?
Uncertainty being something of a family tradition.....
He later became a Barber in Fife:became a Tory Councillor:joined the merchant navy and is buried in Malta.He died in 1953. He saw me once when I was a baby. So anything is possible!
