Visions of yesteryear 109/366



I have a fascination with the past. I often wonder, daydream about what it would have been like to live during the depression. Or maybe while Lincoln was president.

Traveling west as the wife of a pioneer following their dream of farming property of their own is a possibility. What would it have been like to leave your parents and siblings and follow the dreams of a new life in a land untouched.

Maybe Mrs. Cleaver. Nah, more like Bonnie of the Bonnie and Clyde duo. Ok, maybe not. I'm not the outlaw type.

How about a Dorothea Lange photographer? As she traversed her city capturing mundane moments, Dorothea left a visual timeline for others to view.

Really I just like being me.

But it is fun to daydream.
