I love the old family pics! I'm scratching my head trying to remember if I have ever been to Galena. Seems like I should have been. Been to Dubuque several times so seems likely. I like civil war history and have read US Grants memoir which is quite interesting but not a very easy read haha. I love the old downtowns with the brick storefronts
That's my grandpa Clyde in the old crane.
A signed first edition!
Lovely and lovely !!!!
