I've been chasing my tail since the year turned, not to mention that Terry trounced me twice at crib! Not looking good! LOL! Now check that basement for more of Dad's paintings! This tail chaser is going to shake the bushes until every family photo, painting, and letter falls out!

And, add yet another never-heard-of-auction-45 to the list :) Love that the Brian Booth photograph wasn't posed. I wonder if you ever read the book. It sounds long but interesting. Maybe a bit heavy for holiday reading, but i hope you get at least one perfect curl-up-with-a-good-book day :) Black Jack's Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436115876996209227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-3198750586393389022014-12-19T06:58:47.818-07:002014-12-19T06:58:47.818-07:00I've never heard of Auction Forty-five either!...I've never heard of Auction Forty-five either!

Chronologically, it's a blink away, but as a sociological record, it has a historical feel to it that belies its recent occurrence. I am sure that having this kind of family record, so complete, and so resonant with personal meaning, is a great source of joy for you.David M.
