Old Photos

One of the biggest time sucks in emptying a house is the dreaded pile of old photos. One feels compelled to look at them all, just in case. In case of what, I don't know. I just hit the deep drawer full of photos of people we don't know from a long time ago. Here are two examples. These two are from Jim's Dad's side of the family.

This is an old studio portrait of someone. I left it really big, click on it to enlarge. I love the look on the little boys' faces.


This is Jim's Dad, just after WWII. It was taken at a wedding. We've always loved this photo for its film noir feeling.

Jim and his Mom in 1947.


Now I must get back on my head and box up all of this.

  3. I love the photos. They all need to be scaned and saved in a eletronic family Album. I wish that I had scaned our family photos when my folks died. Priceless.
