    Thanks for the comment, Barbara. I love my Flip-Pal scanner that makes it possible for me to scan a larger image to be able to share it.

    I love the expressions on your grandmother's face--the excitement and yet a bit of apprehension. Ah,if only we could all only be young again!

    Sheryl, thanks for the comment and your lovely description of the expressions on my grandmother's face. I wish I had had the chance to discuss family history with her and ask her about some of the photos I have, but my interest in family history developed after her death.
