Ulu Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Yeah, but what kind of shape is the "N" in? Pristine. His keyboard was like new. BTW, here's a photo I found on Dad's PC. I've never seen photo before wednesday nor ever knew it existed. I believe this was taken in early 1945 at the boardwalk amusements. He was born in '29, so here he's 16 or 17 years old at most. Shortly after he earned a big scar on his leg, in a dockyard cargo mishap, and the war ended with Dad in a hospital bed. Dad served in 3 wars & saw duty overseas in each. He was as military and straight laced as they come. He did early AM calisthenics into his 70's. I never saw him take a drink. So I'm both joyed and I'm stricken by the pictoral evidence. That's him on the left, the short guy with a bruised lip. You can guess what they'd been doing. Edited February 7, 2015 by Ulu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulu Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) They'll get some. I have a photo printer, & I make some pretty nice prints up to 8.5x11 Too bad these weren't scanned at a higher resolution though. This one had the best focus of the lot and the oldest photo by about 30 years! I only met my paternal grandparents on two trips: for 6 mos in 1966, and a for few days in 1976. This the only photo I have of them together. I believe it was taken about 1970. Edited February 8, 2015 by Ulu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
