Valentine's Day, 1972!

Here is a Valentine's Day card I made for Mal in 1972 .
We had been married just over a year.

This page couldn't quite fit into the scanner.
Double click to enlarge if you can't read it.

So does this look like me now?

Happy Valentine's Day Mal.
I love you still!

Irene's 65th Birthday

We went out for a nice lunch while the guys ate soup at home! :-)


Then we went for a pedicure.

Irene got a pretty flower put on her toe.
Then they were off to Mexico!

How blessed we are!
Our lives are so different than our Mom's.
I've been thinking about her: at our age she'd been in a wheelchair for years and didn't go out much, yet she always had a cheerful attitude.
We have so much to be thankful for!

Photo Contest

Woohoo, I won fifty bucks!
Our town had a Photo Contest in which they asked for pictures which they could use in the future for promotion purposes. It was supposed to depict why I like living here.
I got second prize.

This was my entry- a moose in front of our new school.
I don't think it was one of my best moose pictures, but I assume they chose it because it had to promote something in our town.

This was a picture that I took last summer of my sunflowers in the back yard.
It has nothing to do with the contest - just a picture I haven't posted before.
