<<<sigh>>> I have a bunch of similar photos. I don't even know who some of the people in the pictures are. But, they, with their vague and random notes on the backs, are a connection, a grounding I can't explain. I'm so disconnected from my kin, and the ones most dear to me are all gone now. Those pictures remain the proof that I was part of that line, that family. And, that I mattered to some of those people.
