Was really surprised when I saw the picture of Amy and Arb, my great grandmother and her son, I guess my<br />gr.uncle. Also, the pictures of the BARCLAYS and PINKETONS. Unfortunately, I was not in the picture, as I had not made my <br />appearance in this world yet. <br />Interesting things you find on the <br />internet when you start browsing.<br /><br />Hugs, Aunt ShirleyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-19797559298609413652012-02-08T10:33:26.405-06:002012-02-08T10:33:26.405-06:00Tony, thanks for stopping by!Tony, thanks for stopping by!Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-79085363811760878782012-02-08T06:13:26.306-06:002012-02-08T06:13:26.306-06:00A Lovely Pack of Dogs!The Quality of those photoco...A Lovely Pack of Dogs!The Quality of those photocopies are really !

In fact, I inherited a bunch of old pictures and info from my mother when she died in 1991. Since then, I have put all of them in different albums.. SO much GREAT info of my ancestors...<br /><br />Loved your photos and words...

I also remember being bitten by the biggest mosquitos I'd ever seen on that vacation, but they chewed us up all over, not just on our heads. Nope, I'll stick with sunburn. Or maybe hot, sticky sweat.<br /><br />Maria, I've read about your Socks enough times that I feel as if I know him personally. It seems that some people who don't have dogs think they're all alike, but those of us who do have them are very aware of their individual personalities. That's what makes them so special to us, isn't it?Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-74391801361527682512012-02-05T11:50:51.111-06:002012-02-05T11:50:51.111-06:00Janet, I see that you did find a photo that fit th...Janet, I see that you did find a photo that fit this theme -- a good one, too.<br /><br />Holly, I think we all take more photos of our pets since the advent of digital cameras. It was different in the days of film photography, when the mistakes were as costly as the good shots. <br /><br />Dani, thank you.<br /><br />Alan, thanks for the comment and the warm welcome.<br /><br />Little Nell, thanks. I very much enjoyed the challenge of Sepia Saturday.<br /><br />Rob, you're welcome! And thanks for pointing out the moon shot. :)<br /><br />Postcardy, what did we do to satisfy our nostalgic urges before YouTube?<br /><br />Wendy, thanks. It's always nice to meet a kindred spirit.<br /><br />Bob, isn't it fascinating to watch how quickly a dog learns to use its other senses to make up for the loss of its eyesight? Truly inspirational! Good luck with your magazine article. I'd love to read it.<br /><br />Christine, if those Pinkertons could get a big smile like that out of my grandma, they must have been something special.<br /><br />Kathy, thanks for the welcome. I'd love to do it again.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-87292499894086449282012-02-05T11:47:38.122-06:002012-02-05T11:47:38.122-06:00I joined the dog loving group when our dog, Socks,...I joined the dog loving group when our dog, Socks, arrived at our door. His personality was evident from day one (stubborn, opinionated, loyal, pragmatic) and now he is a valued member of our family. So far, we aren't brushing his teeth or putting him in a raincoat on spring walks, but this is only because he will not tolerate either.....Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05049511202014141182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-19126736129729470782012-02-05T11:45:22.564-06:002012-02-05T11:45:22.564-06:00don't think it could be fleas causing all the ...don't think it could be fleas causing all the scratching, do you? ;-D<br />Great batch of dog photos.Kristinhttp://findingeliza.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-1444534195709141802012-02-05T10:56:27.385-06:002012-02-05T10:56:27.385-06:00Welcome to Sepia Saturday!

One of the dogs (Sam) in my post was blind for the last two years of his life. It was obvious to us all when it was time for him to go. I'm promised that an article I've written about his blindness will be published in a UK dogs magazine.Bob Scotneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00662958579705940009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-15493653758702075782012-02-04T13:49:00.592-06:002012-02-04T13:49:00.592-06:00I enjoyed this post and hope you'll be back ne...I enjoyed this post and hope you'll be back next week for whatever the theme will be.
