It's bittersweet, because I would have loved to have had her look through them with me. I found several of her and her sister as children, dated from the 1920s. They're amazing. I save everything, though - my old diaries, letter from when Craig and I were dating, movie ticket stubs, everything. One man's trash, another man's treasure, right?Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10047619856144475098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5253987680038616859.post-70273644048896282642010-01-30T01:26:01.247-05:002010-01-30T01:26:01.247-05:00Many of my old color photos are fading away in the...Many of my old color photos are fading away in the plastic albums that are so bad for them...who knew?

I had tried unsuccessfully to journal many times and this is the only thing that I have stuck with. I have printed off a lot of it but have much more to do so I hope my computer doesn't crash before I get it done! I love pictures too and have many books filled with them.
