(Laughing to myself as I read your story) Rosy, I can just see you doing that, and it sounds like something I would do; and I am thinking that at some point , I DID do that and forgot that I had to walk home, too. (or I just didn't realize how heavy it was going to be until I started carrying it home.)
Even just a bag or two would be a real challenge carrying it for two miles and trudging through all of that snow !
My son is going to make us a Flicker account where the family can all post their pictures, and then I can use some of those to add to my blog as I write the stories. I had thought that with all my moving, and then the heart problems, that giving all of the old pictures that I had to the kids was a good plan; but now, I am wishing I had some of those to use for my stories.
I wish that I had asked my parents for more of the family history while they were still alive. Many of the old pictures are unlabeled; and even when they have information, it says something like "Sally and the twins", so if you don't know who Sally was, or remember any twins; the label doesn't do us much good.
That is why I want to write down as much of the family history as I DO know; so that at least that part of it will not be lost, too.
