Sepia Saturday #102 Then and Now and a special birthday

Sepia Saturday


Alan's SS entry is full of visuals to stir up memories.

That is what SS is all about, no matter the age of the photo.

While shooting photos yesterday at Thanksgiving feast I remembered this old photo and how a 30 year old photo has a lot of memories and changes associated with it.

This was taken for our family photo for our church directory in 1981.


Our oldest son had just left Ky. for his new career with IBM in Kingston, N.Y.

Yours truly, way before she was QMM, Beth, Tom,
Rachel, Julia, John and Jennifer.

Yes, can't fool you, I did sepialize (?) this photo, but it was very pale and had lots of blemishes on the paper anyway.

Now speaking of memories.
This photo empathizes how blessed we are in being able to gather for special holidays.



We all know how blessed we are.

Go here for more Sepia Saturday.
You may want to join in.



Happy Birthday 
No #1 son is 50 today.

High School graduation 1978

I have been able to see much of the other side of the world through this  son's eyes.
He has quite a travel portfolio.
He loves art and literature and travel.
He knows what I like and always has just the right photos to bring back to relate his experiences with me. 
He and his best friend traveled inside Russia back in the cold war days and were able to go places where most people were not allowed to go.


We love you Thomas Dwight.
