Old photographs


Well, as usual I don't have as much time as I'd like to spend talking about our unusual family. I've been busy with my on-line writing "gig" and keeping up a schedule of hiking and running (to keep my weight from ballooning over the impending holidays).
I find that it takes me 1-2 days to complete a trail description for VisitRainier.com and that doesn't include doing the hike. But I am not complaining; I am fortunate to earn a modest income from my writing. And I do stress "modest".


Still, I am not complaining about "modest". How many of us are fortunate enough to get paid anything for what we love doing most?
Here's a photo of Grandfather Dalby and the war canoe on "the point". It's still there though not much of it remains.

Welcome to the Dalby Family blog





Hi everyone,
I opened this blog to create a place for Dalby family members to share their memories, photos, etc. with one another. If you'd like to post something relevant to all Dalby family members, please contact me and I'll give you instructions on how to do it. In the meantime, here's a photo taken at the Dalby Waterwheel Dedication Ceremony in 2006 in front of the waterwheel near Union, Washington. The photo includes Dalby family members from Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Canada and England. It also includes a fair number of Morgan family members as well. Hope you enjoy the site as it develops!
