Long haul

My Dad and his trucks. The journaling is part of a eulogy my sisters and I wrote for my Dad's funeral.

 

Some of these pictures are pretty old. I fixed the colors, cleaned up scratches, and removed distracting telephone poles and a tower from the background of the large photo. I also flipped one of the smaller photos so the trucks were all facing the same way.

Journaling:

Growing up as truck drivers daughter’s was never dull, dad was always coming home with exciting stories about his adventures on the road, whether it was driving on the winter roads or driving tankers of air craft fuel through forest fires. He was proud of being a truck driver, and was very good at it. His driving record can attest to that.

Wonderful tribute to your dad, Christina ~ I love the background and the whole "manly" feel to your page! He's smiling from Heaven!

Photos worth restoring and put into a LO that tells him once again how much he was loved by you! Great background paper choice and the photos and journaling are priceless!
