Our family has some albums of really old photos, and I hope to inherit them someday. I'm kind of the family collector. I already have many of the old objects from the family history, and hope to get more as I am able to.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps more happy circumstances will bring you out to BC someday anyway...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
