Thursday Morning
Found this during my morning visit here, and then I checked my email and up popped this .
******************
Brian’s arrriving at 4 tomorrow morning and together we’re driving to Evansville. We should arrive around 10 PM, and then Saturday, at noon, I’ll pick up Matt and Diane who have the sense to fly. This is our annual spring trip.
******************
My father’s mother.
With Adam’s help, I’ve been busy printing and framing family photos. I’ll send him images which look like I’ve sprinkled talcum powder on the surface of the scanner, and/or have embedded water stains, wrinkles, age spots, etc., and he’ll return them in near perfect condition.
******************
Surely there are others out there with hair raising adventure stories? A canoe they tried to turn into triple masted schooner for a quick spin across hypothermic waters, for instance. A double back flip into shallow pointed-rock infested waters in northern Maine? A Dodge skating merrily on its top toward a frozen stream with hitch hikers on board? Cowering under a roaring jet landing at Michael Manley (how great a name is that?) airport in Jamaica? Hitting a black iced curve in the road at sixty with (also unbuckled) girl friend along side?
Got your old radio program tapes for the drive to Evansville? Hope Brian enjoys them too. But then Brian may be using his blackberry for browsing, ichatting, uploading & downloading. Maybe you can upload realtime pictures & radio clips to the blog as you go.
Just how old is that picture of your grandmother? What a terrific restoration.
