Cousin Anna Belle

Anna Belle Burns Lytes Harris

One of the "finds" I came across when going thru a box.  I came across cousin Anna Belle's scrapbook.  I've seen this book many times over the years, but it took on a new significance this time.  As I flipped the pages I saw (for the first time ever) Anna Belle's life unfolding.  Times spent with family and friends, at home and traveling, holidays and special occasions are all right here.  In my hands I held Anna Belle and the family's history.  I have no clue who many of the folks in the scrapbook may be but I recognized known relatives.  Our own "flapper" created a book of photographs that gives a peek into a few of the many years of her full life. I'm grateful to have and share a rediscovered piece of family history.

"Summertime...and the livin' is easy..." Having a few months off in the Summer makes all the difference in the world. Like many people, I used to work a twelve month schedule.  Holidays, personal days and vacation time included.  Pretty nice and financially rewarding.  Life brings about change, people change and nothing ever stays the same. Change is good.  My twelve month schedule became a ten month schedule. This is my fourth year of having a two month summertime vacation.  I will quote myself, "This is nice. I like it."
