As of today, I’ve got 1.32 TB of photos in 8,256 folders and 268,565 files, including scanned photos going back to the 1920s. All organized by year, month, and event.
Finding a Facebook TBT should be easy, but it’s often overwhelming. Sometimes I’ll think of some event or person and go looking for a particular photo, which I can usually find, because my photos are obsessively organized. Other times, I’ll browse and stumble upon a photo worth sharing.
This adorable photo brings back so many fond memories of our Grafton days. Somehow, we managed to live in a 3-story townhouse for almost 30 years with 3 kids who use wheelchairs. I don’t know how we managed, but sometimes you don’t have a choice. Life is much easier now that we live in a handicap-accessible home, and we love our new house and living in Barre. But sometimes I do miss Grafton. Condo living is not for everyone, but we made it work, and we loved our little townhouse community. It was like the old-time neighborhoods where everyone knew everyone and looked out for each other. Our kids grew up together, and we made lifelong friends.
This gem of a photo I just found is from July 2006, so 20 years ago. I don’t remember taking this photo or what was going on, but it brings back memories of two of our favorite Grafton families, the Burke family and the Edgren-Fortin family. Miss you all and think of you often.
