Sunday Stuff

Cute squirrel eating some stale bread we threw out...
Sunday evening sunset....taken by Richard on the 42 bridge.
looking upriver...river is low and clear..
I took two more boxes out of the dungeon today....this is a partial sampling...
Pinky (the dog)  Had hours and hours of fun with this little dog....My brother had one
called Blackie and we played with them so much it is worn down to the bare fabric.
The big green bowl was also in the box....and see the blue thing in the plastic underneath
that? That is my High School Graduation cap....yeah, can't throw anything away!
No idea about this doll...other than I need to try to clean it's eyes to see what is going on 
with that..
Neat plant hanging thing...
Nebraska scarf....won't be going back into the dungeon.....
Of the two boxes, one was labeled "Juanita papers" so won't be posting much more from these two boxes,
but will do a bit more on them..

So pleased you're enjoying these things...and Pinkie - how about that? He/She was loved so much. The little pin tray I didn't know was still around - it was from your gr. grandma Alber to me when a girl and is of Gettysburg, I thnk. The doll was your last one and you'd already out-grown dolls by this time probably. The green bowl was gr. Juanita's and under it the graduation hat (maybe) was Wanda Byrd's as she'd paid for it from Lincoln but wasn't going back up for her graduation. Is that right? She didn't want them to get her outfit. The keys are old, maybe from auctions and the hanger made by Wanda maybe. She was Herman Byrd's wife, our band director after Mike Wenger. The Nebr. scarf has a mate that I got in Florida when here in 1951! It's yours soon as you're here.
Those pictures of squirrel and sunset are magnificent - you could join Conservation Dept. as photographers!
Love, Mom
