Aren't these sunflowers great? I was going to try to paint them but they died before I got around to it. A cousin I hadn't seen for years contacted me via email and we had a great visit and got into a search for trying to figure out various family mysteries...lots of fun and learned about naming traditions in Sweden. Makes one realize how all these bits and bobs of family history we pick up can get transformed and also that even official certificates and documentation are questionable given the times. We do make our own stories to explain events in the end...as Pi Patel would tell us.
