Memories from Tony Desensi camera

-

Tony Desensi was a wonderful guy!  He left behind a memorable group of photos of our Museum friends that he captured over the years.  His daughter Linda and her daughters gave his "Museum Friends" photos to me for safe keeping after his passing in 2011.  

Recently group of negatives came to light when I was cleaning out my "Stuff" from the TDB in preparation for the future use of the facility.  I scanned some of the hundreds of images from the negatives and quickly picked out those shown here, many for the first time.

Starting about 2 weeks ago I cancelled the weaklyreports.net URL and hosting service for my personal webpage.  I am no longer producing my long running weaklyreports page.  This is due to the costs of maintaining the URL and hosting services and the fact that Apple's iWeb software is no longer supported and will quit working completely with Apple's Mac 10.15 system update (all software must be 64-bit applications). I first tried out blogspot in 2014 but didn't post anything that I kept until 2016.  This past week I looked here and decided to push forward with the curved learning needed to use this venue.  This morning I took some photos from my drive and put together a page of info regarding happenings from the end of October 2019. I've decided instead to take the Google Freeway which I started about 4 years ago although my oldest post was started in 2016.  I wish I knew how to personalize the themes and I suppose I will eventually learn but for now conti...
