Ancient History :-)
Thanks to Aunt Mary for scanning and sending these wonderful and beautiful pictures!!!!
 |
| We have no idea when this was taken but it appears to be Poppy and Uncle Jimmy doing battle with a tree! |
 |
| Our best guess on this one is somewhere around 1957ish |
 |
| Spring 1966 (can you find me in the picture?) |
 |
| This was taken in the summer of 1966 :-) |
 |
| As was this. Five generations of Nason women! A force to be reckoned with!!! From left to right: Munga, Nanny Nason, me, Mums, Nanny Lamar. |
 |
| Easter of 68 |
 |
| Lots of cousins with Pop Pop and Munga :-) Probably summer of 1970. |

Happy Father's Day
Happy Father's Day Dad. I love you bunches and bunches behind my back and I miss you just as much. You are the best ever.

Wish you were with us...
In honor of Pops, on the year anniversary of our loss, we went bowling. Bowling was something Pops LOVED and kicked serious butt in. It was how he spent his evenings with good friends for MANY years. He taught Ben to bowl even when the bowling alley didn't have shoes small enough for Ben to wear. He almost always managed a bowling trip with the kids whenever he came for a visit.
We will always bowl with you in our hearts.

Poppy's quest for the perfect sunrise - August 2008
In Dad's mind, every morning was the perfect opportunity to see the perfect sunrise. Every time we went to OC, he would wake up, carry his folding chair and camera, and walk to the ocean in the dark hoping to capture the perfect sunrise. This particular year, we have lovely weather and he had quite a few chances.
Day 1
Day 2
Day 3
A bit overcast, but beautiful nonetheless.
Day 4
Pops decided to get fancy and videotape the perfect sunrise.
In Poppy's eyes, all sunrises were "the perfect sunrise"
Vacation - August 2008 Part II
After laboring in Baltimore, we headed to OC. A well deserved break for all.
A fun round of minigolf.
Poppy and Ben whooped everyone else!
Then off to the race track...
Pops had to try out both the single and twin engine cars!
Pops and Grandpa racing around the track.
Vacation - August 2008
We spent a week of our vacation time in Baltimore helping to get the house fixed up in the hopes of putting it on the market. A great big thank you to Aunt Mary and Uncle John for spending a fun-filled day with us scraping and prepping the porch for a fresh paint job! They took pictures of us all together. We didn't really smell good, but were just happy to be together.
Me taking a picture of dad taking a picture
It seems that Dad was almost always behind the camera lens instead of in front of it. He LOVED capturing memories on film and then looking at the pictures over and over again. Here we are on Tori's 3rd birthday taking pictures at the same time :-)
Dad can be heard singing loud and clear as always in this rousing rendition of
"Happy Birthday"
Dad Had a Way with the Weather - One
Dad always had a way with the weather. In all the years that we went camping for vacation when I was growing up, it never failed to rain (usually torrentially). It seemed that whenever he came to WI in the winter, he managed to bring a hefty snow :-)
