Well well well! What have we here, Judy and Ann?


I thought I was done doctoring photos, but I had to see what all the fuss was about as regards egregious wardrobe issues.  And what's with all the sleeveless stuff besides?  And the modern stove?  We still had the big old coal and wood burner when I departed Penrose in January 1950.  I can see more light and parental supervision was needed here.

Steve's photo


Well I couldn't resist seeing what was here.  Double click to get the details.  The tag on Steve's photo says 7d ranch.  However, that is the same tag as my Canon 7d camera, so who knows?  These aren't the cabins Mom came up to Sunlight to clean whereupon she was swept off her feet by the charming cowboy, just like in the ebooks advertised daily on my Kindle?

Picture of Dad (Ruseell Blood)


Forgive me for resizing this picture but it is such a classic photo I thought it was worth fixing up a bit.  So many details of our lives are in this photo: the lamp and lampshade, the bookshelf with neatly arrayed books, the desk with accompanying stool, the little chair, the hardwood floor and, best of all, a never-before-seen (by me at least) picture of Dad.  Thank you Steve.

OK, we know where Louise is, but where in the world is Waldo, where is Dwight and there is a prize for the correct answer to where's this.

Ann and Judy should definitely recognize this.

These pictures prove two things, number one, Judy did work on the farm and two she had early practice at sewing wedding gowns.
