I've finally started archiving my photos. I'm scanning them and storing them on DVDs and plan to put the "best of the best" on Flickr. I'll have the link on this blog so stay tuned; it should be up soon.
In the meantime, I'm posting some of my favorites. These are mostly Fehrenbach photos that I received when Gramma-Grampa-Down-The-Street died. I would love to record some photos from The Lady's family as well. If you have any, send them to me to archive and I'll return them.
"If I were a rich man..."
This is the oldest "photo" I have. Gramma-Down-The-Street told me it was 1860's and is of her Grandfather- one of the guys in the center. I'll find out from Dad's sister The Matriarch which one he is.
Kind of a cross between 'Fiddler on the Roof' and Ken Burns' 'Civil War'.
Where's Ludwig?
Grampa was born in Triberg, Germany in the Schwarzwald (Black Forest). Many fairy tales that featured the "...deep, dark woods..." originated here, such as Goldilocks, Hansel & Gretel, etc. During the pre-Lenten festivities, the pagan psyche comes alive in Triberg. Here, in a post card from 1910, is a parade float depicting Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. Can you pick out 10 year old Ludwig?
