    A photo, Uncle Harold and three unknown military buddies? A wedding party? A house? A dog? Where is this old barn? That's Hoover Dam but...?
    Occurs to me writing this, value of snapshots might be 100% only for who took it, degrading by generation quickly after that.
    Simple notes make genealogy far easier.

    I often wonder about family heirloom pics but this one takes the cake or..a..glug. No caption on the back but I reckon it might be "Cheers Mate" or "stop acting the goat and give me the real stuff" or...........No year noted but the tie suggests a time I should remember around 1970 or so:oh well I still like it!
