"Mum" ... Ashton & Dylan's Great Great Grandmother
I start looking at the old photos and, since I've yet to leave the condo, I thought I'd draw out one more! I mentioned that one grandmother came by ship on the Matson Line. This grandmother, my mother's mother, came out for 3 months each year and lived with us. I remember going to the airport and she'd fly over. (We took a plane once and it was a Pan Am Clipper Ship that actually had bunk beds!)
I'm posting this because it's got a funny story to go with it. You know about "little pitchers having big ears"? I remember hearing my mother say of Mum (who lived all her life in New Orleans and was "quite a 'proper lady' of the age), "I can get her to wear a muumuu, but I can't get her to remove her stockings and girdle!"
My my my how times have changed! You should see the photos I was taking at the beach just two days ago! Mum would just die!
@aglennc I was just about to call it a night when I saw your notes. Loved hearing your guinea pig story too! Of course I have more old photos, but not many scanned and with me on this trip. On this "slow" day, I thought it would be fun to add those to my "memory lane" vacation pictures!
