#3 - Old pictures, Wedding

Thanks everyone who has commented or sent us emails. I hope you realize that you can post a blog too...and pictures....and videos....whatever you want the rest of the family to know about.

Terry and Dawn sent emails to shed some light on the questionable pictures. I have updated Blog #2 with their comments.

Another clever site I found was this one

http://picasaweb.google.com/tonysingleton8/SingletonFamily?authkey=8LqSzj8QsHM#

It takes you to Picasa Web Album where you can write comments about the pictures on this blog as well as see a slide show of any picture we post on this blog. Isn't technology wonderful?

I am scanning the back of the Iris and Ronald picture so everyone can see the caption. Question mark and "SS" was put there by me. Letters at the bottom were already on the picture back.

After going through all our UK trip pictures, I thought some of you might possibly like to see some candid shots that were not captured by the "official" wedding photographers. Double click on photo to enlarge.
