FRIDAY PHOTO FLASHBACK

I started "Friday Photo Flashback" because I have so many pictures from my PRE-digital camera days. I thought it would be fun to scan them and share them here with you. I'm having so much fun doing this, that I would love for you to join me, too! So dig out the photo albums and put your scanner to good use! Don't forget to sign in to MckLinky so we can all visit and comment on each others blogs!

Here's a picture of my sister (on the right) and I, when I was visiting her in Hawaii (Oahu), in 1994. In the background is the famous Chinaman's Hat. She took me sightseeing that day, and we spent time taking pictures at this park. I still remember that there were only a couple of other people there.

Hawaii will take your breath away.

I've wanted to go someday... I've got some relatives there... My grandfather's second family.

It looks like you had a wonderful time. It IS fun to go through old pics and really brings back the memories. I've been going through a bunch of the old 8MM movie films my Dad took and taking clips to use in my Country Grammy's Walk With God Blog lately.
