What a beautiful thing to be able to trace your family resemblances through the generations -- with the changing wardrobes! Enjoyed these! (And, though maybe not as practical as slacks and a sweater, I love the dress you were wearing in the last photo. Very nice!)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16636115320397120406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-427560122717203300.post-75405378995927213382014-05-17T15:16:02.684+01:002014-05-17T15:16:02.684+01:00magnificent collection of photos, from the unknown...magnificent collection of photos, from the unknown children to those of your aunt and the last one with both you and daughter and blue dress.

I guess that's why I've always liked pictures with roads or paths curving and fading just out of view leaving me to wonder where they might lead me?La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-427560122717203300.post-84749052759227245442014-05-14T20:56:38.602+01:002014-05-14T20:56:38.602+01:00What interesting photos.
