Yes, those are my Mom and Dad's backsides.

Dad's photo is from 1954, the year I was born. It was taken in front of our house in Piqua, Ohio. Mom's photo was probably taken in the late 1930's. The full picture includes five of her girlfriends (sisters?).

By the way, as per usual, you can click on any of the photos in the blog entry to get a larger version of the image. However, this procedure is not recommended for the two "backside" pictures.

Thank you.
