I've never had any interest in genealogy or my family tree, never owned a camera, and never had a desire to take photos. I've always felt that I would miss something in the present fumbling with the equipment and settings. I have a few photos, but never look at them. Apparently, during a fire or natural disaster, people often run to grab their pets and photos. Fascinating. It's always been about where do I go from here, for me.Inspector Clouseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09373932797333038561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561631984395061740.post-59045791939726154112009-02-02T11:23:00.000-05:002009-02-02T11:23:00.000-05:00Handsome as a teenager, Douglas.I have a lot of ph...Handsome as a teenager, Douglas.<BR/><BR/>I have a lot of photographs of me. One, my mother got custody of me. Two, my mother is Asian. Three, our Asian family is close, and stretches far. I have a lot, a lot, a lot of pictures of me.<BR/><BR/>I guess I won't know how to appreciate them until I grow up.<BR/><BR/>Michael.<BR/><BR/>P.S. By the way, if I do go to Canada for university, I decided I might take a trip down to the US and travel a bit in the next year or so, to see sights, to meet people and to experience an all-American road trip. Whether I do that or not, I would love to visit Florida and have you take me out for some golf. I love the sport, but don't have my own equipment, or the time, but I'm interested in getting more practice. What do you think?Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403119049496095966noreply@blogger.com
