With Fiona around 1990 in Beverly Hills - with those sunglasses

Fiona took Miriam, Laura, Toby and their friends Dejah and Anjuli to the beach New Year's Day 1991. Here is Miriam sitting surrounded by a few of the kid's toys, looking not a bit out of place . . .

In the last 15 years of her life, Miriam (and John until his death in 1992) spent almost every Christmas in the warmth of California with Michael and Fiona in Beverly Hills. Here she is in about 2000 or 2001, reading the LA Times in the den of the house at Willaman Drive. The headline says that Congress had chosen a new president of Argentina, so I suppose we could date the picture more accurately.
