Once a week I like to take a little bit of time out and look through some of the pictures that I have either taken, scanned or stolen off of the internet through the years and find one special picture that stands out. Little lost moments in time from yesterday caught with a Cameras lens and relived right here in my blog. Sometimes it's pretty easy to find that one special picture and sometimes it's not that easy, one thing it consistently is however is a whole lot of fun.
This weeks pic is very special to me for a few of reasons, one she was healthy at this time, two I took the picture myself, three it was a family get together and four I was a teenager with very little to worry about other than my paper route and cutting grass.
This is Grandma Hall for anyone who does not know, she was very instrumental in my upbringing and possibly the most influential person in my life. There was my Dad, but he wasn't around much during my youth, there was my Grandfather, but he passed away when I was only 13 years old and had been in ill health for a few years prior to that. It was Grandma and me during my most important years, the ones that I think laid the groundwork for who I am and what I have become. She laid the seed although it laid dormant for a little longer than it should have.
We had our arguments and fights, but she had more of an influence on me than anyone.
Have yourselves a great day.
