I finished up another layout for the heritage album earlier this afternoon that I started last night. This one's of my husband's uncle when he was like two. And his grandparents and other uncles at an all-day company picnic held at a local amusement park back during the summer of 1936 or thereabouts that no longer exists. I wish it was still open, because from what I've researched, it was a really nice park to spend the day with your family, etc. They closed it down after being open for 70+ years when the owner died back in the 1970's. It was bought by the state and now a major highway and bridge take it's place. It's very possible that my husband's grandmother was pregnant with his mom (the youngest of four children) in this photo given the timeframe. The photos came from an old newsletter from the steel mill that my husband's grandfather worked at. It was ripped out and folded. I think the photos that I scanned came out really nice though. And, of course, they are a whole lot larger than the tiny ones in the newsletter....
