2011-07-04 from baptist hospital

Self-portrait taken in my hospital bed around 5am with my Evo Shift on July 4, 2011.

Not how I had envisioned spending the 4th, but glad I had some gear at home and a loving husband to bring it to me so I could feel somewhat festive!

Melissa & Mom first bday

Melissa & Mom first bday

Picture of mother and me on my first birthday (March 21, 1972).

The red birthday cake was made by Mom's sister, Sandra, and the yellow one by Mom.

Picture taken in the living room in our house on Hemlock Street in Arden, NC.

Picture owned by Norma Haymore Bowen (probably taken by Chester Walter Bowen, Sr., as it was taken with the 35mm camera he brought home from Germany) and posted with her permission.

(side note: Mom says the camera that was used to take this picture was the first 35 mm camera she had ever seen)

Georgia & Bill's Wedding Shower

Georgia was the daughter of my elderly friend, Amy.

This picture was taken in the Glosson's house (Gen and Bill). The couple on the near left are Mr. and Mrs. Gregg (The Glossons lived on one side of the Swain's house and the Greggs lived on the other side.)

Melissa age 4

Melissa age 4

This picture is a professional portrait, of course, but, because it was taken before 1977 and has no copyright notice on it (none of the copies do), it is considered to be in the Public Domain.

In the picture, I am holding the doll that Georgia Swain [now McColl] (neighbor and the daughter of my elderly neighborhood friend, Amy Swain) gave me on my first birthday.

Amy's death (when I was 4) was the first death of a loved one I have memory of experiencing.
