    • From our Family to Yours Bob and Bea Fraser
  • Hi Robert,

    Sincere thanks for the kind words re my UNEF-1 (1957-58) photos.  To be honest, it was seeing your photos that inspired me to do the same.

    Yes, the slides were "cutting edge" in those days ... I recall working with ASA 10 Kodachrome ... and thinking it was a "leap" in photo speed when ASA 12 hit the market.

    Five-in-one ration packs ... I remember them well.  Designed to feed five men for one day, or one man for five days.  I really enjoyed the small tins of Vienna Breakfast Sausage.

    I see you are residing in Surrey, BC.  Helga and I are living in Perth, Ontario these days.  We did reside in Langley, BC between 1999 and 2008 after my retirement from Nortel.  

    All the best,

    Denny

  • Some wonderful photos Frase, both old and new.

  • Hi Robert ...

    I doubt that we have crossed paths, but I do want to say "thanks" for posting the photos. These pics have brought back a flood of memories.

  • Hi Bob,

    Well Iguess we must know one another, because we always went to Don & Bea Camerons place after the parade, and I haven't missed a parade since 1991.

    I will dig out some of my old photos and check them out or send them to you for your perusal. Check this one out3313777735?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024

  • Hi Bob,

    Bob Goodbe is a member of our Shrine club, and our Lodge, and  he has a place on Sherriden Lake, also Bob Irwin (Bo Bo the Clown) summers up here. We usually have the Drum & bugel Crop. up for the Williams Lake stampede so we get to know them . We get about 5 to 6000 spectators for the parade so its quite an event, haven't sold Gizeh on it yet but maybe one day.

    Stay Healthy

    Cheers
