Strolling through time

In my case it's viewing through time. This was the last weekend to empty Mom's old house. I have boxes and boxes of papers to sort through still and in one I found a treasure of old photos from the forties and fifties with my grandparents and friends and family. Including a prom photo of my mother at 16! 

This one is of my Uncle on the left, my grandmother, Mom's date, and My mother in the mid fifites at a supper club in NY called the Chateau Madrid (apparently it was a favorite haunt of #FrankSinatra in the sixties! 

 This next one though is fun - apparently my grandmother's - ready for this - basketball team was in the newspaper in 1930 (she was 19) and someone had saved this clipping! Thankfully someone drew an arrow over my grandmother's head or I would not have recognized her! And yep- it's the same grandmother as the photo above! 

Anyhow - I am diligently working away on Neil. I suspect my editor is going to have her work cut out for her! But I'm starting to get into the rehab part and have high hopes! 

Do you like rummaging through old photos? Sure does help when there are names on the back!
