baldilocks and the forebears
Way back before us were the people who had to be there or
we wouldn’t have been us or anybody else. These shots are
from family archives and some people are unknown to me.
If anyone can identify the unidentified, please let me
know. And if I’ve got anyone wrong, put me right.
