My parents have a photo of me, when I was about 6, in a small backyard pool with two Indian boys. They lived next door to us and if that photo did not exist I would have no memory of them at all. Actually I don’t have any memory of them, just the photo and the stories my Mom told me. Sometimes I wonder if that’s true of most things. Do we really have those memories or just photos and stories that have been repeated to us?

Is it just me or does that water look a bit iffy…?
