Olan Mills



Do you remember when everyone had their photo taken at Olan Mills? It was like buying jeans at Sears -- a given. It seems kind of quaint in this digital age.

I'm struck by the fact that they allowed you to bring your pet -- that's my childhood dog, Candy, in 1975. They allowed you to bring your signs -- that's part of my college gang circa 1982.

A few years ago, the baby and I had our photo taken at church. You guessed correctly -- Olan Mills.

Yes, Olin Mills is still doing the church photos - but they won't let you bring your dog.

I like your little Swiss Yodeling outfit!

I'm not sure if I loved you or Candy more, well both equally of course. She was the dog I could never have and you were the sister I never had. I loved how she snored in the bed. Love Deb
