Great pictures. Such happy faces. Sometimes the older pictures are sad looking. But yours look like such happy people.

I'm surprised to see so many people smiling in those photos. I thought they all wanted to remain somber. It makes them look more 'real'. Thanks for sharing.

You knew exactly which photo to post to get me to RACE over here. Thank you so much for sharing.
Is there any way I can get a copy?
