Betty and Her Friend in 1923 -- (Not So) Wordless Wednesday #865

  I found another priceless (to me) photograph in my computer file folders:

This photograph is of Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002) and her male friend sitting on the front steps of the Carringer home at 2130 Fern Street in San Diego, California.  I think Betty is 3 or 4 years old in this photgraph, so it is probably dated around 1923 or 1924.  It appears that she is showing her friend something in a book - perhaps a picture.  The photo was probably taken by Betty's father, Lyle Carringer in whose photo collection I found this photograph.  

This may be the start of my mother's teaching career of which I, unwittingly for some of my life, am a beneficiary.

This photograph is a part of my family history.  I used the MyHeritage Photo tools to enhance and colorize a black and white photograph.
