Otherwise you'll have to meet up with us online, and frequently.

The snow storm of last year ended up costing a bundle in household repairs ie new gutters, destroyed trees, tree removals, and new trees. Hmmmm...I will enjoy following your travels online and hope to see lots more posts. @Ana--the picture in front of the pyramid would be awesome....Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01366288837172105968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3438183654675348577.post-14551765787762413112010-12-21T17:51:03.465+00:002010-12-21T17:51:03.465+00:00If not for photographs and old friends, I'd ha...If not for photographs and old friends, I'd have no memories!

For instance, the photo of the turkey attacking our picnic lunch at the park. <br />I forgot that you do like to look silly in your photos ; ) We should do a photo tribute to your silliest looks. By the way Jake is completely obsessed with meeting y'all in Egypt!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01366288837172105968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3438183654675348577.post-90487261745013897002010-12-21T15:07:03.309+00:002010-12-21T15:07:03.309+00:00I am steadfastly opposed to deleting the ugly pict...I am steadfastly opposed to deleting the ugly pictures, something that rarely appeals to the people in the pictures. I don't mind, because I think I look silly in every picture I am in, but other people who have something to lose don't always like it.<br />I think the pictures change the impact of the memories, but don't create them or destroy them. You don't remember the Busch Garden trip, but now you can imagine the scene based upon what happened in every other picture we were in. You know something happened, even if you don't have a memory of it. I think that's what the pictures do - they remind us, but don't replace the memories.Bryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17982146556048478064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3438183654675348577.post-86803206145309298702010-12-21T14:05:58.538+00:002010-12-21T14:05:58.538+00:00Wow!

I do know that the big birds surrounding us must have completely freaked me out. Posing for family pictures was always a stressful experience for a myriad of reasons. Each picture has a history of yelling, grabbing, and forced smiles to be picture perfect. <br />As far as digital pictures are concerned I think we loose some of the "oops" factors. How many times have you ever deleted a photo due to an uncomplimentary angle or sudden movement? Do you think more images makes the real or imagined memories have more impact?Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01366288837172105968noreply@blogger.com
