Back to the Future

Dave and Harry 


 These photos were all taken of my husband in the 1940's.  Our grandson Sam looks so much like him at this age that I feel like I'm looking at my husband as a baby sometimes.  Then, I look at Dave and wonder if I'm seeing Sam in the future.  These photos were made when he was between 9 months to 17 months which is how old Sam is!




It's not just the face but this body that reminds me of Sam.

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
