Sepia Saturday: My Dad

photo of my dad
lovingly gowned and posing
for a dear mem'ry

I missed the point of this week's
theme on my other blog
for Sepia Saturday,
but since my paternal
grandparents farmed,

or other family member
sewed this gown.

enjoy yourself

Sepia Saturday

I have a few of these old photos...My parents' wedding - all were black and white. And my grandmother made my Mother's wedding gown - all of the daughters wore it. :) ~Jules

That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether ...
