People and family

Where did 56 yrs go ??

This is me as an Explore Scout at 14 yrs old.!! Geeesh...:o)
the stone fireplace...in our home...we had a diagram from the original owner
( a school teacher ) who colected those stones from al over the world !!
The ceramic grandmothers clock on the mantle has been passed down thru the family for several generations.
The small bust next to my head...was from an aunt..who at the time was a nurse in the Phillines...her husband was on General Douglas MacAuthur's staff.
under the tea kettle..is hanging a pipe rack..that was monks heads making funny faces..the smoking pipes would nestle in thier hoods.
Portrait on desk was of my brother who was already in the US air force. I went in the Air Force 5 yrs later..:o)
