The mother lode!

I had lunch today with my mother-in-law, my sister-in-law, and MIL's cousins. One of the older cousins brought some old family pictures to distribute, which came from an aunt who acted as the unofficial family historian. There's nothing like looking at old black-and-whites. Even if I don't know the family, such pictures fascinate me and I could look at them for hours.

The best, however, is that there were three pictures of a freshly dug grave from 1926, heaped upon with fresh flowers. Someone thought it important enough to take a picture of this grave.



The cousin has a wealth of old pictures at her house -- I can't wait to visit and see what other treasures might be lurking there.
