With all the driving and sick and crazy, I don’t have any photos I took to be able to share, but I did get these this week and I thought they were winners, hopefully Lotus won’t kick me out.
My grandpa. I think this was taken in 1946 so he would have been 33 years old.
My great-grandpa, I think he was 71 here.

Are you kidding?
I’m a pretty easy to get along with (as long as you don’t try to steal my cheese.), and I REALLY like you, so you could probably post a picture of dog turds from 1924, that you bought on the internet for 25 cents (why isn’t there a cents symbol on the keyboard, damnit?), and I would just sit here and smile.
Heh.
Also? Those are great photos! Thanks for sharing, Dawn. 🙂

The only picture I have of my grandpa when he was young is a shot of him lifting weights. Apparently he used to be something of a body builder. I saw the pic and thought the guy was kinda cute. Then they told me it was my grandfather. I think I went to my room and prayed for three days. I’m still not quite over it.

Lovely photos -precious memories. Thanks for sharing .
I should scan my grandparents -we have hubby’s grandparents wedding pic (I think) up on the wall – they are quite old . My Father in law is 80 and his was Father was in WW1 – Lighthorse Brigade.
I should delve into the history might be a good blog post idea.
thanks for visiting me – Ha – sleeping babies are just the sweetest – how is your boy going ?
