It is easy...
It is fun...
It is free...
It costs nothing to leave a comment, and it will help to keep the site cozy. Take the time to view the images, post a comment and let me know what you think about the photo... the time, the place, the scenery. composition, your memory of the situation and other historical tid bits.
Love

A Tip for Photo Viewing ALL PHOTOS
First off, thanks for viewing "Gillespie 8"
There is a way that you can view all of the images on this blog in one whack.
It is simple and fun, however you will need to use a different web browser.... so...
1.)Download Firefox http://www.firefox.com
2.)Install Firefox... simple
3.)Go to ... https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5579 and click add to Firefox.
4.)Let it do its thing - it will prompt you for a restart of Firefox.
5.)Once restarted come back to the blog, then you will notice a little arrow in the bottom left corner of images...
CLICK IT and ENJOY!
Dear Peggy, Johnny, Angie, Mark, Janey, Kay-bee, Rob
The "Big Bang!"
This blog was established to bring the lives of "8" siblings back into perspective. Having worked on our family tree for a while I understand the importance of documentation and if for no other reason, I feel that the LEGACY of this generation of Gillespie children should be etched into it's bark!
While most family trees start at the begining and move forward this blog will start at the end and move backwards.
It covers multiple generations and has history, genealogy and rare artifacts that make us Gillespie.
It is an archive of photos, facts, sayings and memories of the children of Walt and Millie.
I envision that this blog will be used to share information about the past. present and future "Gillespie" generations.
I encourage my brothers and sisters to post! In case you are wondering if you are on the right page... this should help

Something just caught my eye in the "LAST" family photo.
I am the only one in touch with Mom, Dad and Angie.
Can you "Feel the Spirit?"
I was actually born the day before Mother's Day. Dad brought Mom and big bouquet of lilacs at the hospital. Dad gave me a lilac bush one year for my birthday when I lived at Mockingbird Ln., so I made sure I had a new one planted at Misty Woods Ct. It's right outside my kitchen window. So I always remember that story when I smell lilacs.
