LOVE looking at old pictures like these two.

The first photo was extracted from the second, but if you'd like to see even more detail, here's an extreme closeup.

Historic.

Close up or far away, they are both nice to look at AND I got an even closer look at the same picture. 'Thank You' ;O)

I've been told the tufts on the snowshoes is an Ojibwa tradition, any other words on this? I like the ghost image over the boy's shoulder - slow film?

A Chinese laundry doing business on 5th st. I bet they were busy even if the Finn's or Cornish spoke no Chinese........

A gret picture showing the might of the snowstorm in days gone past. We have our first snowfall of the winter here in Monroe County i.e. 1" dusting is all and that may even melt by the time Santa arrives.

I like the extreme closeup (full screen). It would be nice to see the decade in review that large.

Do you have any pictures from the year of the record snowfall? Was that in 1979?

Did anyone notice there are telegraph poles but no wires connecting them? I wonder if the job got started but wasn't completed at the time of the winter photo????
