I am glad to be back to write in our blog after a long vacation. There were many things going on that we were waiting to see how they developed; at the same time I was working on a project to reduce the volume of our paperwork by scanning pictures and papers for a future autobiography.

Sample pictures that brought back many memories of family and friends include:
me (about 5 months old) -
Lynn and I on top of a snowbank by the side of the road -
the picture of Carol, Lynn and Naida, taken by a photographer who came to Fairfield.
When our mother saw it she said, "This is the picture I saw of my children before Earl and I were married,"
and a Hobo Hike with our Mutual class me on the right, and my cousin Nancy kneeling in front.
