1933

Today's Mobile paper ran a section with news from 75 years ago... July 30, 1933. They make mention of my mother's family being "afar off by the lapping blue waters of the Aegean....". Papa John, Grandma Hazel, mama and Aunt Dessie had left Mobile to live in Skopelos, Greece for a while...this was my grandfather's home and relatives were there. It was during the depression years.
