“Another – Aunt Irene – Favorite…”

Jul 19th “Another – Aunt Irene – Favorite…”

Just thought… that I should use this photo of “Aunt Irene” – since while going through an old file – – just ran across a single page of an old letter that “Aunt Irene” had sent to me – way back – when I was living in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This may have been the middle page of the letter – as at the top of the page “Aunt Irene” was saying… that Denny and Judy wanted to take her out – on … and for her “BIRTHDAY” – for a nice dinner – but she was saying that she would rather just spend some time visiting with the children – but – that is just the way people feel when they get older – they are more into – just visiting with the FAMILY – as to have to go out to eat – they would just have more FUN … with littler children.

The above photo was taken when – – for and on one of the summers – that we drove up to Saint Louis … for our “FAMILY” – monthly vacation…- from Fort Lauderdale – and we would be able to visit FAMILY and FRIENDS – that we knew would also be attending the “German St. Vincent Orphanage – annual picnic.” When you are young and have the time – and… this I’m guessing… – that lots of Families take a summer vacation – with all the kids and a whole list of places to stop at…and then… to spend special time visiting everyone – and… I sure am glad that – I did take a few pictures – because – after all is said and done – “MEMORIES” are all that you can take with you – – travelling all trough your whole… LIFE TIME!

The “PHOTOS” – just seem to help – you to remember more of the details – as some times…you may think that you remember something happening one way – but – having that – “PHOTO” – sure does help for “total recall” – and for me – the more of the full memory – the more – that I can write!

So… I think that – that was so cool… “TODAY” – that I should just find a part of an old letter from “Aunt Irene” and she is telling me…that … JUDY and Denny are taking her out for her “BIRTHDAY” – and so this “photo” just brings “two good thoughts” together for me – there must be something – out there in space – letting me put this all together – just for “today! ” Just so you know … we all wish you … “Aunt Irene” – – a very special “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” – we are still and always – thinking about you…
