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 is undated but is no doubt from the mid to late 1960s like all the others have been from this set. There's a whole crowd of people so this seems to be a party of some kind. A few of the people are holding and eating something but I can't tell what exactly.
The second photo was processed in August 1966 and appears to have been taken in Florida. Probably somewhere in or near Miami but there's no way to tell for sure (unless) someone recognizes this location).
The third photo was processed in May 1965 and looks like another party or get together of some sort. At least there is a table with food along with a bunch of cups and plates in the background.
The last photo was processed in August 1965 and features a picnic. There have been several photos featuring this same picnic (or perhaps different one in the same place). My guess has been that this was a 4th of July picnic.

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.
