Well, we have taken on the project of a lifetime (literally). Jim and Jackie are scanning 55 trays of 35MM slides (about 60 per tray). This covers about 40 years of our marriage -- from 1956 to roughly 1996 -- when we stoped using the 35MM camera.
While it is time consuming (we should have lots of time, but we don't seem to have enough), it is truly a labor of love -- with a lot of memories emerging as we go through the slides. We are looking forward to sharing this with our kids and grandkids when we convert them to a CD. In addition, we have made up 3 frames of pictures for the bedroom of grandkids and trips we have taken. Some examples of these are attached. We still have 15 books of photographs that we will probably not scan, but leave to the kids and grandkids. I really believe that we kept Kodak in business over the years.
