      The joy of moving, realizing how much junk you have. Each time I moved, I swore that I would avoid accumulating all the extra bits and bobs again...

      last trip was to 50th HS reunion, family reunion, last sorting of my deceased mother's things including 5 huge boxes of photos , mostly from her family from W.Va. taken from the mid-1800s to 1930s. Included some tin types.I hope to use the images in some art or image transfers. They are beautiful photos.

       

  9. Wow. Unpacking my treasures from my co-artists of the past 2 weeks. Great experience and intense friendships formed with complete strangers by our creative interaction.
