Ignore the man behind the curtain

JWE was always a photographer. He left us with over 50 years of photos. He had this cool camera where he could depress the shutter at the end of a long cable. No timers then. In this photo, we were strictly instructed to look at the camera...ignore Dad. Not sure what went wrong but something didn't work right and Dad was fussing with his remote shutter. Notice that Mom and Dave (#2 son) are the only ones even looking at the camera. At least we kept our hands folded.
