Hey Robon, thanks for the great post (though I don't remember the love taps, but most likely they were deserved)it was fun to read your thoughts.
Thanks also for the great gift and the phone call!
Of course I poached off her smugmug. She has the most complete library of photos pertaining to herself and her life... too easy!
this is marvelous robyn...i still can't fathom that she is 4 years younger than me...actually my brothers' age, and that you are 4 years younger than her...wow...still I LOVED your list and fotos...i can't wait to see what you send her...mine if i am lucky will arrive maybe this week....
got to love jill's smugmug and hey you know she is writing 1/2 our history. I loved reading your thoughts on Jill and of course I loved the old photos.
Smugmug is a great resource indeed! This was a great list -- too funny that she doesn't remember the love taps. That is the way with oldest siblings, I should know! Jessie is always telling me things I did to them that I conveniently cannot remember...
