By the sea, by the sea - Thing #7

We are Jersey shore people! This is an old, old photo from the 1920's that I scanned into Picasa and "played" with to make it as clear as possible. Last Christmas my cousin in California sent me about 50 old photos from 1920 to 1960. I scanned them into Picasa and made them as clear as I could. Had lots of fun learning how to manipulate old photos with a tech tool.

The handsome devil on the lower right is my Dad--a true Swedish fish! He loved the shore; to fish and swim was heaven to him. Going to Asbury Park from North Jersey was an adventure in a Model T. When you got there, the adventure continued in a rented bathing suit.

I'll bet he has a half-a-cup of coffee on the blanket behind him.
