Snow Stroller – Laval 1959, originally uploaded by Mikey G Ottawa.
i love visiting Mikey G Ottawa… he has posted all kinds of classic treasures…. like this one… this was flickr back in 1959.. big smile..
Mikey G Ottawa is one of the many very special people that have found me on flickr… well.. he might say i found him… but this matters not… i am a noted historian and i won this war.. and you know what they say about the winner of the war.. the winner gets to write the hsitory books… another big smile…
Mikey has taken time to write out what each photo is about… like this one..
Snow Stroller – Laval 1959
We had recently moved to our Chomedey, Laval home near Montreal, Quebec, Canada to a new subdivision of recently-constructed homes. Mom is walking little Mikey G here….
well have times changed or is the picture just in color now… the cycle of life goes round and round… what can i say…
Mikey.. i want to wish you a very Happy New Year.. and all the best to you and those you hold dear to you… may this next year be a very good one for you…
Thank you Mikey G Ottawa for sharing this gem with us.. tiandra..
Honestly, I am so touched. Thank You Tiandra . . . so much!
It was in July 05- I was able to buy a computer and the ball started rolling. I uploaded some family photos and made a “pre-fab” website courtesy of Windows ‘Spaces’.
My family is spread out between Vancouver, B.C. . . . Ottawa . . . Bermuda . . . and about 5 different cities in Germany. This, I figured was a way to share family photos without printing copies and mailing them out.
Mr. Jeff Trexler of Trexfiles.com had blogged a vintage photo of a Staten Island, N.Y. Youth and Jeff’s link went to Flickr! I had never heard of Flickr until about 3 months ago. I got interested and ’signed up’ at Flickr!
There is so much still for me to learn about the Internet, Software and my 2.2 Ghz HP computer. I’v gotten better since 1985 and my TI-99/4A (16K RAM) or since my days with Windows 95 (Crash!) This stuff appeals to my technical side And to my artistic side. I guess I like tellin’ stories- too!
Well, I don’t need to tell you that Flickr turned out to be a Lot of Fun! I’m Just Ridin’ the Wave’ . . . .
I didn’t know that such vintage B&W photos would find
so many fans! How delightful! I am so happy to share! Thanks So Much, Tiandra . . . for allowing me
to Share These Treasured Family Photos of Ours.
Wishing You All- The Very Best For 2007 For You and Yours !
