Rummage



My new/first scanner arrived late last week; good thing the weather was not that great as I would have felt guilty about spending most of the weekend playing around with the thing if it was sunny and calm.
It is a Conoscan 4200F, does negs and slides too.
Fran helped with digging out all the old pictures, man there is a lot.
This one is one of my favorites, taken at the Okalakatiget Society opening and of their new [old boarding school] facility in 1985. Not all the members of the Moravian Church Brass Band [of the day] were present, but it added a unique touch to the day. The dog liked it so much that he joined up on the spot, all-be- it, as their leader.

Great pic of the old band near the old houses--or was that the opening of the radio station? There's some great stuff in those boxes, with important little notes in the margins too, names of people folks have all but forgotten nowadays. Would be great to digitize.
