The photo was taken in Taft, California, at Easter in the mid to late 1950s. My sister and I are wearing dark matching dresses. My mother is wearing dark glasses. With us is our nearby neighbor and her daughters. Not sure where my baby sister was. Although I remember being 2 years old and living in an apartment in San Mateo, California, and have many vivid memories from the time we lived in Taft, I have no memory to go with this photo. A friend with a beautiful sense of humor referred to those lapses we have as "repressed happy memories."
