From Michael Colley:

This compilation was created long distance by L. Earl Colley and son Michael E Colley.  Mike visited Dad a couple years back and scanned into Mike's computer some of the picteures out of Dad's photo album picture book.  Over the years, Mike sent a CD to Dad, it didn't work.  Mike sent another CD to Dad, it worked.  Dad e-Mailed back the descriptions below of the pictures.

I scanned in the pictures with high resolution so some of them are much larger and have better resolution than what you see on your screen.  Scanner: Visioneer 4400 USB.  These files are raw out of the scanner with no processing.

All of Mike's work here is hereby placed in Public Domain and I am pretty sure Dad's is also.  This CD made over an approximate 3 year period.  Today is April 16, 2005 and Mike is working a temporary job in Grand Rapids, MI at Smith's Aerospace.  He is buying a home 806 E. Applegate Dr, in Austin, TX.  Dad and O-Ma own at 321 Wells Av E., in North Syracuse, NY.  The autostart for the CD comes from Craig Knutson who said I could use it as I wanted.

Most of the file names that Dad quoted are close, but some of the file names in his e-Mail don't exactly match the actual filename I originally assigned.  There might be just a little more information if you check the actual filename that is in the directory named "20030927-From-Dad-Executable-Pictures using Windows Explorer.  I did the best I could and I think I correctly matched all of the descriptions to the pictures.  Just about everything below is clickable.  You can go to the file manager if you want.

I have also included on this CD is a nice totally free file viewer in case you need one to view these pictures.  It is called FOTO TIME.  I have included it without their permission on this CD.  It requires minimum Win98SE.  I don't think this version that is totaly free is offered on their web site anymore.  Works great for me.
