Our Grandparents


 I was playing old Carter family tunes on YouTube and realized that I had my own old photos from the time when Maybelle was having the girls. This is my Grandfather holding my father. My Grandmother was a small town flapper of sorts. That's my Great-Grandmother and Great Aunt and Great great Uncle there. They were on a picnic on the farm. My Great-Grandmother lived into her nineties. I visited her when I was 19. She told me about how my grandmother here was a drug addict. My Grandfather ended up a famous drunk in my hometown. He's in my book. I loved the hopeless old fool.
