Sunset on Lake Michigan

Photo by K.D. Jones. Lake Michigan, likely summer 1938.

This morning we helped my Mom set up the Christmas tree, and this provided another opportunity to go through the old photographs that were passed down from my Gumpy to my Dad. The photo above is undated, but I have a feeling this was taken during the summer of 1938 while my Gumpy was working as a lifeguard at Indiana Dunes State Park.

Gumpy had a good eye for photography, and I'll be sharing some of his photos from the 1930s and 1940s on the blog for the next week.
