Last night I went to visit my dad in Waterville. It was nice to see him again, I'm terrible about visiting my family, I honestly probably visited more when I lived in Wisconsin and not 45 minutes away in Ann Arbor. My purpose for visiting was to go through some old photos I knew my dad had and take them so I could eventually scan and organize them...I'm not quite sure when I'll have time for this but it's on my to do list. My dad is moving and I didn't want him to throw the pictures away and I didn't necessarily want him to throw those into storage either. I liked going through the old pictures, my dad found a few that he wanted to keep too, but it was kind of bittersweet. He's moving from Toledo to Las Vegas...it's sad to me that he'll be so far away but it's also sad that he's selling the house I grew up in. I get sentimentally attached to things...hence wanting the pictures I guess. I can't wait to really go through them, organize them and share them with my family though.

At least you are making the effort. I would love to go get pics from my mother's house, but who knows where she has put them. She didn't even know where my birth certificate was!
I know what you mean about being sentimetal though :)
I've been wanting to gather these things for awhile and do some more genealogy but I seriously don't have the time. Maybe some day :)
