Family Photos, Vol. 1

It’s a Family Affair I’ve started scanning old photos that I found when I was going through my Mom’s things after she passed away. This is just a quick and dirty compilation until I have more time. It’s amazing how much I remember and how much must be lost over the years. Hopefully the rest of the family can join in and we’ll make a bigger collection.
