A Little History That Went A Long Way

Remember that scene in Back to the Future III where Marty and Doc have their picture taken in front of the clock for the tower in Hill Valley?  That picture ends being integral part of the story, just as it would be for anyone's family history.  Having said that, I always love seeing very old family photographs like that.  My Aunt sent me this one today. 


We haven't been able to identify everyone in the photo yet.  However, pictured behind the bearded man who's sitting down, is my great grandmother, Bertha Rose.  This photo was taken in 1910, 20 years before her death in 1930.  The bearded man was her father.

Almost There...

After weeks of effort, the redesign for this site is nearly complete.  I appreciate everyone's patience despite the lack of updates in the last few months.  All that is about to change.  I'm still working on film blog, and sketchbook sections, so bear with me for a day or two with that.  The sketchbook section ought to be interesting in that most people have never seen my works-in-progress.  Stay tuned for that.  There are new photos in the photography section and my author's bio has been updated.

More to come...
