Clambake

Pot at rear had a spigot for pouring cupfuls of clam juice (this was weird stuff to a ten-year-old from the midwest). Note also the metal mats in the background, laid on the sand to aid the movement of the boats to and from the water.

This appears to be a double exposure. Theflash may have failed on the first try, and a long exposure caused candle flames to appear as long squiggles.

Gay 90s party

Gay 90s Party, held on May 9, 1953 in Buffalo Grove. Sadly for the subjects, the focus is at the back of each image.

Boats

Dad didn't notice Bill and me in the shadow until we pointed out ourselves when reminiscing twenty years or so later. At the right edge of the photo is a white concrete base with what appears to be a pair of cable guides on top. This could be part of the electric winch that was used to pull the boats from the water to their parking spaces.
