Well, since I'm in the middle of packing, I couldn't find much in the way of ancestral photos, except a few of my dad and my grandparents, so here they are: My handsome dad when he was a young man: <img src="http://www.ipadforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=55791"/> <img src="http://www.ipadforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=55792"/> My grandparents on their wedding day. I don't know who the other folks are...My lovely nan wasn't much of a looker, but my grandad looks very pleased with himself! Lol! Must've sampled her amazing cooking already... <img src="http://www.ipadforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=55793"/> My nan and grandad asleep on a park bench in the sunshine, lol! I love this one!!! <img src="http://www.ipadforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=55794"/> My nan as a very young woman (maybe 14?). Sorry about the flash... <img src="http://www.ipadforums.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=55795"/> GC: EyeC999 Level 96

The cutest thing is that my little "W" loves his "Curly" so much. They have this special connection...she watched me give birth to him. So nice! . And they both had their pic taken on a pony!!! . Cute cute!

Oh, I forgot to mention that my maternal grandmother's parents immigrated from Prussia although they were German. They landed in Kansas after Ellis Island. Kansas was the "hot spot" for Mennonites. Mennonites were similar to the Amish. My mom has the "Sunday outfit" my grandma wore to church. A black bonnet, a black half cape, and a black dress. I used to play dress up with the ensemble. They rode in horse and buggy to church. The women and children sat in one half of the church and the men sat in the other half. Interesting stuff

Hello friends! I miss you all. I think (fingers crossed) I am doing better! Here are pics of my maternal grandparents and my paternal great grandparents. I love all your shots. I got a bunch of old photos from my parents when they passed but I haven't done much with them yet. There are so many random photos of unknown folks. Carolyn, my grandpas family came from Kansas too!

Always be yourself, but if you can't be yourself, then be a pirate! GC: pristoph Level 53

Oh, Val!!! I was just thinking of you!! Literally! . Your maternal grandparents, if they are on the left, I can see you and your daughter! You are a mixture and your daughter looks like grandma. Is that accurate? And they are so young compared to paternal side. Kansas! This grandpa was the maternal grandpa? How old would he be today? Do you know if he was Amish or Mennonite?

I just saw my Neurologist today!! Another round!! Are you able to come play more?? Let me know! I'm so glad you posted!!

Hey sweets! I'm rockin my new treatments. Still too early to call it though...give it a few more weeks at least. But I'm feeling better and getting out of the house a bit!
I don't think they were Amish or Mennonite.
Those on the left are grandparents and the really old folk are great grandparents (did I miss saying "great"?, lol). I don't have their birth info handy, but the last name was Shipman.

Since we are taking an Avatar Change break...I was thinking about doing a Community Story. Someone starts writing a story, maybe a paragraph or a few sentences, then someone else adds more, etc. At 5 continuations, the last person finishes out the story. Then, anyone can start the next story.

RULES
1. This is for fun
2. Anyone can join in
3. Stay appropriate to an open forum with all ages, all races, all countries, etc. able to read what was written without being offended
4. Person who starts story types COMMUNITY STORY at beginning.
5. First "Continuer" types CS1, second types CS2.
6. If you are Continuer CS5, you will conclude the story. (Maybe 5 is too many or too few...we will see)
7. You can be a successive Continuer if you wish.
8. You don't have to be eloquent to join...add your unique talent...if you're funny, edgy, moody, etc., show us!!

We can give it a try... see if it is fun or a nuisance or an epic fail!! Lol!

I'll start...

COMMUNITY STORY

It was a dark, moonless night. Cold, yet dry. The sounds of an owl hooting and a pack of coyotes howling fill the air. Alone, I walk on a pathless trail, my steps being the first. I have no destination, but I instinctively continue on. I have come to the top of the ridge line and must decide my next step. After quick consideration, I choose to ...

CS1
turn left and avoid the extreme drop that I remember comes up quickly on the right. I know I am being followed but hope my nonchalance is not mistaken for disregard. I quicken my pace ever so slightly and am determined I will not trip as my eyes have adjusted to the dark and my senses are heightened. The stillness is unnerving but I must continue forward. In the distance and over the next rise, I know there is the safety of a cabin, filled with.....
