Anyone ever wonder how anyone in Germany in the 60's ever found their car in a parking lot ?

Those are great, FP. I have some good ones at home of my grand parents and great-grand parents, but I will need to scan them. Here is a painting Molly and I have at the house that I think fits pretty nicely...

FP, was yesterday your anniversary?
Barb and I got married 29 years ago yesterday.

And thanks John for reminding me how long ago 1983 really was. But like I told my Wife at dinner last night, It all goes by so fast, it seems like yesterday.

A blast from the past, a street party in 1945 celebrating victory in Europe, V 'E' day.
That's me in the foreground shielding my eyes from the sun. My sister behind me and my mother is behind the first high chair to the left.
Men are noticeable by their absence.
