Favorite Find is this week’s prompt for 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks.
I’ve had these vintage photo packs for years. They belonged to my parents, Charles L. HEISER (1913-2001) and Gladys MARTIN HEISER (1921-1999). I’d flipped through them enough to know the photos were from a 1951 trip to Florida. The photo packs went into the ‘later’ pile after that. ‘Later’ for these photo packs happened last week.
When I really looked through the photo packs, I discovered my parents went to Florida and Mississippi on this trip.
The photos inside are treasures, for sure, and currently my Favorite Find.
Let me share some of the photos with you. I think you’ll enjoy them, too. You can click on each one to see an enlarged view.
