Randy and Scott Playing Ping-Pong in 1967 -- (Not So) Wordless Wednesday #845

 I can't help it, I can't do a wordless post! This is one of my favorite and most priceless family  photograph collections: 


This photograph from the summer of 1967 (I think) shows me on the left (at age 23) and my youngest brother Scott (at age 11) on the backyard patio (between 30th and Fern Streets in the 2100 block of San Diego) where the ping-pong table was the field of battle for much of the year.  
My mother and father also played ping-pong with us, but never as doubles.  Many a pleasant summer evening was spent on the patio barbecuing and playing ping pong as a family.  We also played Wiffle Ball and Basketball.  We loved being competitive. 

The photo is looking south from the apartment house at 2114/2116 Fern Street, and the wall in the background separates the Carringer property from the apartments on the southern lots of the block.  

This photograph collection is a part of my family history.   I used the MyHeritage photo tools to enhance and colorize a faded color photograph.
