Dusty Moments -- America's Finest Blog

Dusty Moments, America's Finest Blog, is dedicated to photography and the American way of life. With each old snap shot or Kodachrome slide, a bit of the psyche of the person behind the camera is revealed, while simultaneously creating mysteries as to the true nature of the subject's story. The words within this blog are my own. Many of the photographs are mine too, but included also are the dusty moments from my parents and grandparents, as well as, junk store finds.

Back to School

Well it is that time of year again, back to school for the children. For me the phrase, "Back to school," still to this day, is rueful in its meaning. After an all too short summer our neighborhood children out at the bus stops each morning at dawn to catch their buses. So in honor of the return of school here are some photos of my sister and I on our first day of school. For some reason there are no photos of younger sister's first day of school. Which seems odd, but probably has to do with length of the teachers strike in 1976 and the fact that by the time we started school we were packing up to move out to Mountlake Terrace.

Enjoy
