Vintage Weekly: Mother and Aunt

location: Valley Mills, IN

which she appears to be here,

what with her arms holding my mother closely.

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 o

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
