Family photos that Gram was throwing out.
The wonderful look of surprise Gram had.
Found a photo of Sarah, age 6 or so. She hasnt changed. And, despite it all, she and my aunt look
and act very very much alike. Perhaps that's why they don't get along so well.
Listening to Mim and Bill tell stories of the grand moves that happened... Tales of Papa and Gram's
retirement to the farm, how horrible a place it was... the starling that came up the toilet...
Bill's joke of how to give a cat a bath...
The porcupine in the venetian blinds...
Skunk in the milkhouse, digging up seedlings.
Tilling the fields.
Gram's retirement in 1972
Photos of me, age < 2. My hair was just as unkempt then.
A postcard for Gram, sent when I must've been in first grade, wishing her a happy new year and
asking about Benny dog.
Lots of photos of Papa's siblings (at least the boys).
Photos of Mim looking very much like Sarah, till she smiled.
Simon, having that same look. Alex too.
Ok, being antisocial. Must go participate.
