Vicissitudes

May 1976

Original neighborhood photograph accompanying Vicissitudes; No great historical significance here, just that lovely spring fix-up that keeps us moving.

Spring has once again brought to Skinker-DeBaliviere the excitement and hardwork of preparing for the Art Fair/House Tour. We welcome all our relatives and old friends who are with us for our big day. For this issue of The Paper, seen not only by ourselves but also by the hundreds who will be glimpsing us from another perspective, we reveal ourselves this month in pictures. Look with us at the faces of our neighbors and at the activities seen’ most often by the camera. Are we a “different” kind of neighborhood?

May we remind you of the annual Pancake Breakfast, held on the morning of the Art Fair. It benefits The Paper, and we surely need benefitting. Do come to Tepas’ carriage house for outstanding breakfast fare, managed this year by Sam and Lou Green. We look forward to seeing you all!
