Welcome to Thursday Coffee Hour. This is an open topic thread so help yourself to the goodies and sit a spell and let us know what is going on in your life. I am currently scanning old photographs into the computer so I can put them on discs for the family.
The old photographs are fascinating. It is a glimpse of the past. I just finished doing my late Aunt’s scrapbook. I enjoyed looking at pictures of my grandparents. Both of them died before I was born so I never got a chance to meet them. There were also some great pictures of my Dad as a child.
The photos are starting to deteriorate and I have to run most of them through Photoshop in order for them to be viewable. I still have thousands of more photographs to go through. I also have thousands of Dad’s slides. This is going to be a long-term project but in the end all of these old memories will be preserved on discs for the whole family to enjoy.
