Hey Mike,
Where did these aerial view photos come from?  They are really cool!  Sooz

Suzy,  I think Google Earth has a satelite that looks back in time.

No, just kidding.

Today's picture is from the museum. I was looking at it a couple years ago and realized what it was. I still look around the museum and find something that has importance to us, an old picture, or a newspaper article.
All the other ones are from Mom's photo album.
Glad you are enjoying them!

Mike, I don't remember seeing these photos either.  This looks like a photo maybe I can ask Trevor to scan for us at a high resolution and maybe include it in the new Fairfax History Book.  Actually all of the old photos you have put up recently are great and definitely keepsakes.

Mike was up in a Zeppelin and took those.

I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and take pictures of the flood. And of the night the school burned. And to see the old New Hampton Institute...............
