At least Bad decisions make good stories.

I'm working on a photo project for my mom.  Scanning a hundred or so photos to put on a photo frame as a surprise gift.  My mom is giving it to my aunt and I get the dubious honor of scanning the photos and loading them on the frame.  Just as an example yesterday in 4 hours I managed to scan just 22 pictures and am 1/2 way through fixing the first one.  This shouldn't take any time at all!

I was given some fabulous OLD photos to scan and a few of them are in pretty bad shape. They've been scratched, folded, set in the sun and just to top things off one of them looks like it was held under water for several days.  Now I love photoshop and nothing gives me greater pleasure than putting my skills to good use, but fixing a photo a pixel at a time is tedious and tiring and I think it's making me blind.  I don't mind really, I like focusing so hard on a project that I lose all track of time....no really, it's no trouble, no trouble at all.....really....it's fine......just fine......

I would love to post before and after pictures of the worse one, but they're not my pictures to post.  I will, however, post a couple of pics that include my family members, because lord knows we could all use a good laugh.


Who the heck? And what is on that boys head?



All the Moreno cousins with a couple of (ironically enough)
Campbells thrown in.  It was somebodies wedding. And don't even ask, I have no
idea what was going on with my hair.

Now here's a fine looking group.  Ahh those 70's.
