Friday Family Blogging

Here's another cool picture of my Gramma out in Seattle circa 1975. Amazing that she's only giving up what looks like four or five feet in relation to the Space Needle-- I don't remember her being so tall!

not to quibble over minutae. John, but I think that picture was taken around 1970-1973. Your uncle Chuck had sent Mother a ticket to fly to Seattle that summer and when we visited her in Erie, she spent an hour or so telling us why she was too old to fly to Seattle. She did not understand why Chuck had sent her the ticket when he knew she just could NOT make the trip. Then she took me back to her sewing room to show me the clothes she had made for herself for the trip.
She went and had a marvelous time. I still smile when I think of it.
