love is....

....old pictures!

That's me,

sitting on my grandparent's beautiful, shiny

Chevrolet.

Maybe a 1950 model?

They lived at 1719 Habersham Street.

There was a dry cleaners across the street.

Grandmother & Papa lived upstairs.

My Great Grandmother lived downstairs.

I loved to slide down the

mahogany banister.

There was a swing on the porch upstairs.

I spent a lot of time there

watching the cars

go by.

I could name every make and model.

My mom kept me in pretty dresses 

with bows in my hair,

The bangs are cut badly though.

Funny.

A heritage in family pictures.

To sit and look at them

 brings back so many precious memories.

Thank you Trish and Jackie 

for saving these for me.

I spent my childhood in the fifties.

It was pretty much idyllic...

had a playhouse,

a bike,

a cat, 

and a friend named Loucinda

right down the street.

What in the world more would I have needed?
