GRANNY'S PHOTO ALBUM
For about the past year, I've been working on scrapbooking all of my late mother's photos, some of them dating back to the late 1800's.
I will NOT however, bore you with any of that.

The last year of her life my Mom (and my daughter's Grandma) lived in a Retirement Home. Like so many older folks (myself included), she enjoyed reminiscing about the
"Good Old Days".

In my own defense, I would like to mention that I made this
album when I was just learning to scrapbook.
So you see, this REALLY IS Granny's Photo Album!!
