Sepia Saturday #89: Some Sepia Posts That You May Not Have Seen


This week on Sepia Saturday, Alan has given us free choice on what to post.  Well, of course it is always free choice, but I try to follow the theme if I can.  Anyway ... I was posting sepia posts before I knew about Sepia Saturday, and here are a few that my Sepia Saturday friends may not have seen yet, nor my newer readers. 

I hope that you have a few minutes to explore these neat posts.  There is a lot of information here with some fun bits of history.  To read other great Sepia Saturday posts from around the world, "CLICK HERE" when you are all done at Oregon Gifts.

I just spent an an enjoyable morning looking at all the interesting stories and pictures Kathy. You are right about the handsome men - all of them!

I was fascinated by the slide show of the museum at the top; it looks a wonderful place to visit.

Thank you Kathy for all these flashbacks. The Agana Bridge is the one I kept going back to.

So far I've only had time to visit the Pageant on Mirror Pond, and that was fantastic! I'll visit the others later after I've done the rounds for this week. :)

The entire post is entertaining, but I'm struck by the final postcard. It's beautiful.

Alan Burnett said...

I love the idea of going back and featuring some of your previous sepia posts - it has given me an idea about what we can do to celebrate Sepia Saturday 100. A most enjoyable collection.

The Pageant at Mirror Pond was especially interesting. I love all of these though, because they are about your family and the Northwest.

Brett Payne said...

an eclectic mix of images, thank you Kathy.

Thank you, everybody, for your thoughtful comments. If I haven't been to see you yet, well I'm on my way right now.

Hope your week is a great one so far,

Are you looking for info about Tyler Matthews?

Check this stuff out below:

The 2012 Army All-American Day Event


Photo Source: Nike "The Opening Brochure" Pages 2 and 3
During the week of July 5-9, 2011, Cary and I were privileged to attend "The Opening", watching quarterback grandson Tyler Matthews (#43 the first day, and #15 on game days) play with 150 of the best high school football players in the United States. The event was held at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon. I hope that you enjoy the pictures ... some are better photos than others, but I tried to capture as many kids as I could.

There are approximately 500 photos in these slide shows. They are of the players, the fans, our family and everybody/everything that caught my eye. They are in chronological order. No names are on the pictures, even if I do know who people were.

As time permits, I will also be writing blog posts about my experience as a spectator. Since I still have a lot to learn about football and this is not a sports blog, I'll write some human interest stories as seen through my eyes. That said, Tyler Matthews, YOU ROCK!!!!
