This was taken towards the tail end of my modeling days. It was actually a competition between myself and another boy, two girls and two dogs — I won. Unfortunately the girl in the post with me was not the nicer of the two girls and complained constantly during the shoot. Aside from the pre-shoot shenanigans, this was a really fun photo shoot!

Family Klondike Days from 19631963-07-151963-07-16edmontonfairgrounds

Klondike Days are an Edmonton tradition dating back to the Gold Rush when Edmonton as Fort Edmonton. It later became a huge affair with a week long carnival and a massive parade. Everyone would dress up in clothes from the Klondike era as you see below. This makes it four generations and over 60 years of Klondike Days for my family – amazing to think that I was swindled happily as a kid by the same games that my grandfather likely played.

She was a big proponent of Edmonton's Klondike Days and sewed Klondike costumes every year for the family. (see image below)
