Dome

Our backyard was a fun place. Dad enjoyed constructing various structures for us and the neighborhood children. At one point he became intrigued with Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome and decided to build one out of broomsticks and metal can lids. 

Dad put out a call for extra or old broomsticks. The story goes that brooms started disappearing from back porches around Oak Street. 

Here's the finished product in April 1958.
