RE: 1902 and beyond

Yeah, I threw in the colour to show the passage of time. It's good to think of him looking like that as he spent so much time in his workshop. It's a different world now than when he was born 122 years ago of course, but good to recall those people from the past. I see small steps in Nana's face a little bit from this photo. Hopefully she's not as stern as Nana used to be sometimes.

Sort:  

I never knew Nana, as she was gone when I was a baby still, but I heard some stories. I have a feeling that Smallsteps isn't going to take much nonsense either.

She was a nice person, just stern. It didn't help that she had dementia at the end either, also that I was only a kid when I knew her.

I remember her and grandad taking me to the circus when I was about five...that's probably where I got freaked out by clowns and why I don't like them now...anyway, I got cinnamon donuts (hot ones) and remember getting the sugar everywhere. She didn't get mad, just patiently wiped it off, cleaned me up, and then later I had another and did the same thing. She helped then too. More patience than I would have had. Lol.

It's funny what memories stay in mind.

That was my first reaction when I saw the photo!!!

I see my mum in smallsteps face too, some photos are strikingly similar.
