Sunday is for Family

I recently found a box of my grandmother's old photos, including many from her childhood on the farm in Frederick, MD.

I cherish these old "picture postcards", as Grandma called them.

I hope you get some rain!; July 5, 2009 at 3:07 PM

JacksDad said...: Re: Scheduled Posting on Blogger

What I've been doing is setting the clock ahead on my computer (to England time) and I've changed the blog time to the same. THEN, I just post the next day's posting before I go to bed. It shows up as the correct day. THEN, I change the clock back on my computer to my local time. It's a pain, but it keeps the days right on the postings and I don't have to mess with it first thing in the morning.

Hope this helps!
