0759, Mon, 120913, Rocklin, CA.

 

No more snow.  The sun is shining but we still have the cold temperatures.  Looking at the thermometer down south it looks like they almost reached 80 degrees in La Paz.  I asked Sue if she missed it, she said, Only the weather.

Sue was busy scanning more of our stuff yesterday.  We have a big hutch full of memorabilia, some of it scannable.  So I helped out with that.  It is kind of fun to go through the old stuff once in awhile.  We have an original "E" ticket from Disneyland as well as a stack of those dual pictures that, when viewed through a "stereoscope", become 3D.  We don't have the viewer though.  Now that would have been really kewl.  We do boast a picture of Lincoln and his cabinet as well as the funeral procession.  Also in the collection is a pile of old newspapers complete with full page pictures of the devastation of San Francisco the day after the big earthquake and fire.  It pretty much leveled the city…….more later..
