The generosity of Aunt Violet's daughter with pictures for yesterday's blog post continues with a sequel today! The first one features a stylish Vi in 1938 and I wonder if it was her last picture at the farm before heading into the big city of Winnipeg. The virginia creeper vine on the front of the Boulton house is just as vigorous today but the gingerbread trim on the verandah is showing its age! 
Cousins Ida Bigney and Vi Boulton look so much like sisters, they could have passed for twins! I wonder if they ever tried to...
Ida and her husband Max White are pictured at the God's Lake Mine where he started off as canteen manager and his musical talents were well used for entertainment. Max and Ida were married in December of 1939 and the picture on the right is Max, Ida, Vi and Eddy White, I assume on their wedding day.
The next two pictures are of Vi and her cousin Mona Bushby on the left and with her sister Edna Boulton on the right. Both pictures were taken around 1939.

Below is Joe Sowtis in his Navy uniform in 1943 and Vi with Sharon at their home in Brandon.
