Wow, I'm on a roll!!

This picture is so funny. It looks like I'm crawling along someone's tombstone. Getting older has made it more difficult to get into more appropriate positions. Plus when someone else is taking the picture, it is difficult for me to know what is actually going to be in the picture. I don't know who I needed to prove that I had actually been at the easternmost point in the USA.

For a while I waved in every picture that was taken of me. Then a nephew-in-law made some sort of comment, and I decided I needed to change my look. My dad used to always stand sideways. We could watch his belly grow and reduce. I never knew why he liked that position.

I hate pictures of myself, primarily because when I look into a mirror, I see a different person. Then when I see a picture, I am confused. Which do I really look like--the picture or the mirror reflection. I sure wish it would be the mirror reflection. She looks better. I also have gray hair--easily seen in the pictures. But it is so strange. In the mirror, I can't tell that my hair is gray. I don't care that it is gray. I just wish that I could see it.

One nice--and maybe sad--aspect about digital pictures is that many of them will be lost and never be seen because they stay on a computer or disk that will be outdated, probably not in the far off future. Paper pictures that used to be stored in photo books or in the back of the drawer will surface more. It's always fun--and funny--to see some of those old pictures. The new generations will lose out on that experience. Sure some digital pictures are printed off, but those goofy ones won't be. Those are the ones that make me laugh.

I've tried to figure out how to put another picture on here in this spot, but my pictures always go to the top. That's another problem with technology. In the old days, I'd just tape a picture wherever I wanted it!!
