On the left, my paternal grandparents born 1887 and 1890, portraits drawn into wood by Mary Ann Bigelow about 25 years ago. The ports were taken from a photo taken around 1906-1907. Londy and Calla were products of the border region of Kentucky/Virginia.
The chalk portrait is me at the Seattle World's Fair ca. 1962.
All three of us were destined to spend most of our lives in the 20th century (unless I live into my 90s). I only overlapped in time with my grandmother for a few years, but long enough for her to be branded into my memory.

Two of the west facing windows on my house were covered by wallboard from inside by the previous owner, creating a surreal effect that never fails to gain comments from visitors viewing the sight from outside.
