    10X6 hard to photo thru glass! I will try later.; Shadows. my downfull.
    Granny, "Salt of the Earth"--River Forest, Illinois, 1893. Antique frame from the day.
    It looks better than I can do justice with my old camera and AZ, desert shading. I am going to try again this evening.
    I was in Value Villiage this afternoon in the section of frames. A worker with a cart set this down on my hand and said "Excuse me please". I hugged her and said "OH! Thank you so much."! She gave me a baffled look..... $ 2.49.

      All my relatives are buried in Forest Gardens Cemetery in River Forest.IL. I have a plot there waiting for me with those buried there since before the Civil War.
      Is this an OMEN. The worker laid this on my hand today. as I had it on a shelf of frames at Value Village.
