Pictures from Barbara McCleary Church

I haven't posted on this blog since June but I just had to share an envelope of pictures I got in the mail yesterday from Barbara Church, Class of 1962, who now lives in Wenatchee.  Great stuff here and Barb even ID'd people on the back and put DATES and places!  Who does that?  I'll tell you who. Smart people.  I suppose it didn't hurt any that her dad was a photographer and probably drilled that habit into her.  I'm sure glad.

(you can click on the photo to enlarge)  and Barb:  THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING!

  1. Thanks for the memories! It was wonderful growing up in Port Townsend. Who knew that Barbara McCleary Church was doing a photo documentary of the Class of 1962! Skip Prange
