The home of George Richardson (1838–1909), built about 1885 in what was then the town of Argo, Colorado. Argo was annexed into the city of Denver in 1902; its location is now the northeast corner of the Sunnyside neighborhood. This photo was taken by Richardson's youngest son, George J. Richardson (1879–1943), whose youthful interest in photography resulted in a photo album now owned by a Richardson descendant. View full size.

My sister and me in Spring, 1970. Fountain, Colorado. I am four years old and sure, while I was styling in the early 70s style, I still cringe at the short pants and that green shirt - almost as much as I cringe about the couch we are sitting on and the wood paneling of my grandmother's home. 
My mother took the image using her Kodak Instamatic 104 using Kodak 126 film she dropped off at a Fotomat on US 85/87 in Security. I am sure a flashcube was needed - it was inside, although I suppose sunlight could have penetrated Grandma's heavy curtains. 
My sister was born with a double cleft lip and palate. Her first of 40 corrective surgeries will come within a year. View full size.
