and trying to help out around the house.
I brought my computer and scanner along with me, hoping to have time
to scan a lot of old family photos at high resolution.
I'm going through a box full of photos from the last 60+ years. Pretty
amazing. Some of them I had scanned about 15 years ago for my Multi-
Media Family Tree project. At the time, scanners and computers were
much slower and I didn't have the time or drive capacity to scan them
at high res. So now, I'm going back and rescanning as many as I can.
I just found a little packet of wallet sized photos that my Grandpa
kept in his wallet. I never knew he had this.
In it are photos spanning back to 1947. He had photos of his Mother,
his Great Grandmother, his wedding to my Grandma, a portrait of her,
his kids (as kids in the 50s), each of his Grandchildren, his Great
Granddaughter, and a family portrait from 1982.
I'm pretty overwhelmed learning that Grandpa kept these photos with
him all the time.
How is it I keep finding reasons to love my Grandpa even more than I
already did?
