I all-of-a-sudden remember when those computer printouts were the big rage when you'd be at the fair and get your picture taken and on closer look, they would be little letters that made up the shadowing. Of course yours is so much better coming from a live human being and now I feel sorta silly mentioning that. I also love the stories behind the pictures. Thank you for that!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8775740.post-1144780082552201062006-04-11T14:28:00.000-04:002006-04-11T14:28:00.000-04:00Such a wealth of information!
