This is the first weekend of spring and all of Greensboro seems to be ready for a little spring fun. The above photo was taken in the window of Old Photo Specialists at 320 South Elm Street. The restoration experts there take new photos and make them look old. They take old photos and make them look new. Above, the five friends seem to be having the time of their life- a little wild abandon among the five young girls. The Old Photo Specialists produce archival quality photos. These memories can last forever.
How about all of Greensboro getting together this first weekend of spring? We could all buy a great pair of sunglasses, plop down on a couch with several friends and giggle. All. Weekend. Long. We could recreate this photo. Regardless of how we celebrate this weekend, may we all find a way to appreciate the world around us, just like the young girls above.
It is Saturday and we're sharing this with Weekend Reflections.
What fun! It's great! a beautiful portrait!

Some days, I feel like the woman in the portrait down below. It only takes looking at the happy young girls to be reminded to smile!

Thanks for posting this picture. It made my mother's day -- the woman in the photo is my third great Grandmother -- Mary Catherine Petrie, born in 1840 in NY State. We recently found this old tintype photo of her and Mr. Heroy at Old Photo Specialist restored it and several others! He did a wonderful job!! Love your blog!
