Before Cooper

Unintentional hiatus

I've been rather busy, what with the end of summer and the beginning of a new academic year.  I'd also run out of pictures from volume one of my grandparents' photo albums -- and I've not made a whole lot of headway into the second volume.

Hence, my posting of pictures has slowed down significantly.

I have some pictures uploaded, so I'm going to set those up to post over the next couple of weeks.  And I'm going to get back to scanning the pictures very soon, too.

Back Porch, Emporia


A picture, as you can see from the writing on the borders, of Ruthe and Kenneth shortly before they were married.

August 15th


Today would have been both Ruthe's birthday and the Coopers' wedding anniversary.  So, to honor that, I post this lovely picture of the two of them heading off to their honeymoon after the wedding.  The caption in the album reads "Alley Oop and Bride."

Some place, some time

I love the caption for this photo in the album: "John and Georgia, location unsure"
