I have to admit .. I was feeling a bit jet  lagged today.. probably because I stayed up till 2:30 this morning talking to Max..   I was very glad with late afternoon rolled around and I could call it a day. My last obligation for the day was when Matt and his mom visited to do some filming. Matt is a soon-to-be 9th grader who is doing a film project on Cochran road. So far he’s interviewed 19 residents of our road for stories about the past.. He did a good job asking questions.

I scanned some pictures of the area for him to take.. so I figure I aught to share them here.   Here’s the old Jonesville store.

here’s our neigborhood after the ’27 flood

here’s what it looked like before the flood

Here’s what the sawmill across the street looked like nearly 100 years ago

nad here’s a clever artists rendition of ‘Richmond in the future’.. note the subway to Jonesville 🙂 .. Funny thing is, we found this card at a flea market in Pennsylvania !

After Matt left, we all piled in the car for family sushi.. It was nice having the four of us in the car.. it was liek when they were babies.. not babies anymore !..we ate our weight in sushi !

Beautiful sunset on the way home, too .

then some upsidedowness to help settle that sushi..

 

I love my family very much ..

 

nite all, nite sam
