Aw that is sad about Sams wife. You know sometimes I think wouldnt life be better if we went back to the past. Villages (like my own) where everyone helped each other and people were people and not numbers like today. There is so much I miss that was part of my life as a child, and then I think about people like Sams wife who would probably have survived her injuries now a days, and lots of other wonderful progress we have made.............guess I just want to have my cake and eat it to ! lol If you ever get time to scan the pictures I would love to see them.

Oh by the way, what kind of things are you planning your decendents to find out about you !!!! lol
