Photowall

I’ve complained already about the construction around where I work and how it has screwed up the already screwy parking problems around here. Yesterday, on top of my problems with technology, I wound up parked in one of the furthest parking structures from where I work, and with my normal outdoor route fenced off. On the other hand, the detour through the research buildings and the medical school took me past the rows of photos of past students. Since I wasn’t in any hurry on the way out, I decided to see if I could find the class of 1896, and the photo of my great grandfather…


And here he is. It’s kind of eerie. I can see bits of me and my dad in his face…

It’s a copy of a copy, so it’s a bit fuzzy. The original photo is somewhere in the med school archives. It’s possible that I may be able to interest someone there in doing a searchable archive, which would be cool.
