I made some impulse buys after getting a new scanner and picked up a huge batch of slides a while back. These pictures span from as early as the late 1940s to as late as the early 1990s. These were from Goodwill and eBay (sometimes via estate sales). There are many thousands of these slides. I will be scanning some from time to time and posting them here for posterity.
This set continues a batch of slides that I bought on eBay a while back. I don't have as much to go on as to the ultimate origin of these compared to the previous batch I was working on. They came to me from eBay and most likely were picked up at an estate sale by the seller. Most of them seem to be taken in the 1960s and same individuals are included in many of the photos. It looks like there are some that were taken in Miami and some that were taken in New Jersey and perhaps elsewhere. I get the impression that Miami was a vacation spot for this family.
The first photo shows a small girl jumping into a lake. It is undated as are all the others in this set but they all would have been taken in the mid to late 1960s.
The second photo is some kind of get together but I don't know if it is for a particular holiday or special occasion. The couple who lived here seemed to host many dinners and parties, often on or near holidays. This could be a 4th of July or Labor Day or Memorial Day celebration but I'm just guessing based on the red and white table cloth. It looks like it might be a rainy day outside so maybe they planned to have a picnic outside originally.
I believe the third photo is from an Asian restaurant of some kind possibly in Miami. There have been several photos from this place in past sets with who I think are the owners and/or staff.
The last photo shows a young couple hugging on the sidewalk.

The entire collection that has been scanned and uploaded so far can also be found here. This also includes higher resolution versions and versions with post processing.
