The 70s, Grizzly Adams (aka my dad)

Ennui — A. @ 7:28 pm

Today’s photo scanning has included of bunch of stuff from my dad and his siblings from the 70s, and some photos my dad took of while on his sailboat. I presume this is one of my dad’s fishing buddies. And yes, I would totally hit that.

Here’s my dad and Kelly’s mom, circa 1975. I swear, my dad looks like Grizzly Adams in every freaking photo!

Here’s a pic of Kelly’s mom from 1976. I love her smile.

Next task is an album of photos from when my dad put his boat into the river. It’s not going to be very entertaining work, but this is about all I’m going to be able to show my grandkids about my dad…I’d better scan them all if I’m going to make it so that I can milk a good twenty minutes out of this album sometime in the future.

B&W

Ennui — A. @ 1:29 am

Man, I just finished scanning in and cropping my black-and-white photos from photography. There were around fifty prints in all. I really want to publish them! Eek! Damn dial-up. Here’s one of my favorites, I called it The Great Below, for obvious reasons:

Oddly enough, I saw my old photography teacher, Diane Keane, out walking her dogs as I pulled up to work this morning. I wanted so badly to take a picture of her, but I’d left my camera at home. Oh well.

Total photos scanned today: 221.

Albums left: 5 and 1/2.

I’m off to bed.
