Then and Now

When I visited my parents last week out in California we spent a day up in Columbia State Historic Park. My dad was born there and my Great Grandma lived there until she died in the early 1980's. Columbia was a Gold Rush town and now the town is a protected area where a lot of the historic aspects of the town have been preserved.

Back in 1978, when I was just 3 years old, my family took one of those "old time" pictures. So since we were there again we had to recreate the shot. Times have changed, looks like my dad went from a cheating card player to the Town Marshal, while my mom and myself grew up to be "proper ladies".
