To scan or not to scan









OK, so we have been to Disneyland, the cabin in Gibbonsville Idaho (Salmonish), William Joseph concert AND the JONAS BROTHERS this spring/summer.

But first on my list to share on my blog is what I just finished. Scanning 7,236 files A.K.A. precious artwork, schoolwork, and doodles of my kidos. I also found a few things from grade school up to college. Take special note of the love notes.

Before anything else.

You need to know James and I were engaged in October of 92 and Married APRIL of 93. We were both crazy busy with school and jobs and had very little time together-good thing too. Anyway I must of come up with a brilliant idea to jot each other love notes in this little "mini' composition notebook. He obeyed--Did I marry WAY above me or what?

What do you think the other priceless photos or papers I kept ALL these years? ALL 7,236.

Now you may be asking how I did THAT MANY files without finding a dull knife in my kitchen. I used a special High Speed Scanning service that I offer through Heritage Makers. At 30 or more photos per minute I was going to town! Here is a sample of what I found:

  1. WHAT??? You're insane. Or brilliant. And incredibly patient. Even if the scanning is FAST, you still have to round up all that stuff. Kudos to you.
