Many pictures nobody knew who they were, but all of the ones I had in there were given to me in a plastic bag. I still look through it now and then. But there were LOTS of people nobody knew. Mama and Daddy didn't label them. I'm not sure what happened to them. :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1970111941968077431.post-80981683303821854802016-02-03T16:12:47.456-08:002016-02-03T16:12:47.456-08:00Probably less of a perfectionist (my mantra when g...Probably less of a perfectionist (my mantra when gardening is, "It's better than it was.") than a control freak.
