I have a picture of my mom at 14 but she looks 21. <br /><br />Oh, Blogger is a pain about those pictures. Horizontals hardly ever work unless they're small or one is paired with a vertical. 2 verticals usually always work regardless of size. Sometimes I have to drag and drag and drag the photo into place to make it "stick."Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863357756727783017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-21870081479062443412014-04-30T00:52:25.186-04:002014-04-30T00:52:25.186-04:00I love the yearbook photograph of the couple on th...I love the yearbook photograph of the couple on the swing. It seems so childlike and I wonder if girls and guys these days would be photographed in that setting. And yet, the seniors of that time looked so much more mature than the girls of our time (in my opinion, at least). I continued to be amazed at all the photos you have of your mom's friends. (And please tell me how you were able to get blogger to publish photos side-by-side! It used to but the most recent blogger won't let me do it. There must be some trick to it, huh?)Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-5257071029984567162014-04-29T13:02:29.671-04:002014-04-29T13:02:29.671-04:00I remember going there but don't remember anyt...I remember going there but don't remember anything specific -- just being totally wiped out after visiting EVERYBODY.

It's too bad that they reunited as a result of ovarian cancer - I have a young friend (32) who just had a full hysterectomy because both of her ovaries had cancerous tumors in them.
