I hope that you enjoy these as much as I do.
Chris, I have been addicted to Shorpy's new section on colorized photos. Yes, they were colorized and not taken in color, but there is nothing like viewing a vintage photo in color to bring the past forward. Can't get enough! I am also addicted to my hometown's FB page. It's amazing what we remember - seemingly unimportant things at the time fuel our happiest thoughts today. Sort of what you have done for Denholm's and your grandmother's memory.
