More pictures


I didn't get time today to lay out the 'Grande Plan' project so no pictures to share as yet.  So...in the meantime, how about a couple more ancestors?




The lady above, although named on the back, doesn't as yet fit into my family tree.The gentleman below seems to be wearing some sort of official vestment - but I have no idea what its significance might be.




Another in the autograph book series,dated Jan. 1940.... "Be discriminating in your charitable impulses.  After you have given a man a leg up in the world, you often find that the same leg turns around and kicks you"

  1. We had the same suite of weather conditions here today! I came in from evening chores looking and feeling like I had gone overboard and swam to shore ;)

  2. I would love to share our sunshine with you. For this being an El Niño year for us we are not having the rain we thought we would have. Now that my daffodils are blooming it should snow and smash those beautiful blossoms to the mud...it happens every year. Sunshine Smiles Dear...
