"Hi Mary"

Hi Mary,

I don't think that's me in the Mystery Photo -- The photo is kinda small, but from the posture I think it is your beloved, all dressed up in his spiffy ROTC uniform.

Another New Mystery Photo

Here's a real mystery photo for you! Can you identify it?
Okay, okay....we won't keep you in suspense...
Here's the note that came along with the photo:
"Guillo and Rachel are happy to let everyone know (hopefully you already heard!) that we are expecting a baby BOY on Jun 26 of this year! We are still hoping to make the reunion, and introduce Eve Cecile and the youngest Herr Cintron to the rest of the family."

And a few other pictures from their life in Uganda. They recently had a visit from Ellen and Bruce. Here's what Rachel had to say:
"Here are a few of our latest - from our boat trip on Lake Victoria and our sailing club, and a safari critter from the trip to Murhcison falls. And one gratuitous, cute Eve pic, with her "baby" in a sling!"

Mystery Photos Identified!

Dave was the first to identify the last mystery photo with this reply:
"That photo looks like uncle Bud and aunt LeAnn to me. Could it be?"

Vivian also wrote in quickly with this detailed i.d.:
"Okay the Mystery photo is Leanne (or Leanna) Herr and Bud (Frances or
Francis)Herr during the first Great Depression. I have a copy of the photo.
It was taken on one of our trips to Ohio. He was Dad (Ross) Herr's youngest
brother and farmed the "home farm" at this time. She was a wonderful cook
and we always enjoyed visiting them. I still remember a treat of homemade
ice cream and homemade chocolate syrup."

We also received this message from Diana:
"Thanks for including that 25 year-old wedding picture on the blog! Sometimes it seems like just yesterday and other times it seems like a very long time ago, especially when I see how young everyone looks! Looking forward to the family gathering this summer."

Thank you for the great responses!! Now let's see what you have to say about the new mystery photo to the left. Also check out the dates for upcoming birthdays and anniversaries!
