I love this. It was a time when the men and women who are/were our parents were young and hopeful. A time when altruism was natural and the thought of defending freedom and democracy and our country was a natural thing. Now we have global thinking which leads to identity loss and when real need arise, no one is accountable and everyone looks back to the US for solutions and blame!
Your mother is beautiful. What a poignant picture though because communication was not instant and a relationship was only as strong as the love and loyalty in one's heart for another soul.
I am grateful to your parents Deborah. They made sacrifices to help restore freedom and democracy in my country and help the people of my country.
Please tell your parents, especially your father that I hold them with high esteem and regard in my heart. Thank you.
Now THAT is a Valentine! I love what it says without *saying* something. (yes, I'm the person that buys the monkey cards with funny pics and few words....) It is lovely Deb! Hope you're feeling better..... (((HUGS!!!)))
Oh, your mom is gorgeous!! I have a similar picture of my mom and love looking at it. You could just see the hope of her whole life in her face and the love for my dad. This is gorgeous! Love, Silke
wooowwwweeee! i see where u get it. this is a beautiful card, deb. the only thing that is missing is a beautiful frame to go around it. thanks for sharing. xox linda
LOve those old pics. I have quite a few them from folks early days. My little brother put then all together in a CD and each one of us got a copy...makes it so nice to just go back and look at them and their youth.
Interesting to note that a hot girl and a fast car always lead to something. It has not changed since man invented the wheel. The caveman can say all the Argh! Argh! and the Ugga! Ugga! at the sight of a beautiful woman but if he was pushing a wheel, there may be more chances of a beautiul cavewoman saying "Okay, caveman, what do you want?"
I was a dancer seems like a hundred years ago. I once owned horses and rode with the wind. I've skied Black Diamond trails and avoided the moguls. I am the sum of all that I have experienced, but don't add me up yet; I still have a few numbers to throw in! In The Autumn of my life, embracing it with abandon.
Recovering widow; there IS life after death.

You have some beautiful pictures of your parents...have them framed? You should!
This car reminds me of one that I rode in that had a rumble seat in the very back. It has been a long time since I have seen a car with a rumble seat.

Oh BTW, I am not insinuating that there are cavemen involved in this post, I am just citing history.
Your parents are gorgeous and I love what they have instilled in their daughter.
xoxoxo
I love old photos and this one is so full of life. What a marvelous way to remember your parents. Beautiful job, girlfriend!

It isn't the winters it is being Catholic and practicing the rhythm method. They obviously did not have the beat down.
