So I went through some bins of old pictures, and was suprised by what I had that I had forgotten about. I have a LOT to get organized, but I started scanning some pictures today. Maybe I'll start my own "Scanning Sunday" so I can gradually work away at it.
Here are a couple of what I have found today.
This first one is my grandmother - Jane Cahill - taken at Holyrood Palace, Endinburgh Scotland.
This one is Bill Shanks, Nov 23, 1959. It is a professional photo (Thos Calder, 38 Munches st. Dumfries, Scotland) I believe it is for a hotel he managed. I have a picture of that hotel, but haven't scanned it in yet.
I used google maps to look at the street view of that photography place in Scotland....I find it so interesting to get a glimpse into an area that my relatives might have visited.
The Family Curator gave me the spring cleaning bug too! I love your idea of Scanning Sunday.
ReplyDeleteScanning Sunday sounds like a good way to start the week. Check out AnceStories ScanFest, they are on Sundays too! Next one, this coming Sunday.
