1996 Second Half

The second half of 1996 we started to venture a little further afield and got ready to leave the Davidge house. Allie started walking and doing lots of other interesting (to us) things. July 1, 1996, In the Crib (4:38).Greeting a new day with Allie in her crib. Patti and Lee hosted a July 4 …

1996 First Half

The first half of 1996 we mostly stayed close to home, settling in with Allie and our new working routines. January started with a blizzard (Jan. 6-8) with more than two feet of snow — higher in drifts like in front of our house. Once it was all over, we shoveled and shoveled, then brought …

1995 – Before Allie

1995 was the year Barb became pregnant, giving birth to Allie on October 5. We stopped making albums this year, so the photos and storyline from here onward are from various collections, boxes and memories. I’m afraid I don’t have a good story about when and where we learned that Barb was pregnant, but it …

1995 – Allie!

1995 was the year Barb became pregnant, giving birth to Allie on October 5. We stopped making albums this year, so the photos and storyline from here onward are from various collections, boxes and memories.

Davidge, 1994

This post represents the last, partial album that Barb didn’t quite complete before Allie was born. After this point, posts come from the raw photos we have from year to year.

Davidge 1993-1994

For whatever reason, we have few photos of Christmas and New Year 1992-1993 (perhaps they are hiding elsewhere). In January of 1993, Barb was invited to the inauguration of Bill Clinton by virtue of her making a contribution and being a member of the Saxophone Club. She didn’t go to the inauguration itself, but did …

Davidge, 1991-1992

Picking up from our previous post, this album starts with our September 1991 trip to Disney World and cruise on the Big Red Boat. More photos and details from the trip on separate Travel post. In October, we went with Betsy and Joe to Williamsburg, VA, renting a condo at Ford’s Colony through a deal …

Davidge, 1990-1991

In June of 1990, the whole Duncan clan, such as it was, gathered at the South Seas Plantation on Captiva Island, Florida, for Mom and Dad’s 50th Anniversary. Sue had done a lot of the planning, I chipped in on choice of South Seas Plantation, Len and Laurie were living in the area in Fort Myers and …
