Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in November, 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024. The deck of the bridge is now under that pile of debris.

Sepia Saturday meets Appalachian Coal Fields

For Sepia Saturday this week. Do I have any old photos that meet this prompt? I'm pretty sure not.
I'd love to find some polka dot blouses...or teddy bears.  And I played piano for a long time...but alas, no photos. (Thank heavens.)




I'll share a Facebook link which has some great old photos.  I enjoyed them, and perhaps you will too.

Appalachian Coal Fields
There is a great collection of old family photos there.

  1. Love the two kiddos taking a bath in the tub. I once gave my 3-yr old son a bath in a similar tub when we were camping. An interesting challenge!

  3. I marvel at how some photographer managed to visit places of rural poverty and capture such beautiful images. It takes a special eye to do that.

  6. I just realized that you may not be able to see the whole collection from Facebook unless you have a FB account (free). I wanted you to experience the fun collections that Appalachian Coal Fields posts there.
