Someone else asked the same question. I don't recall. It's possible that my cousin Kerstin, who is not in this picture, was recording their conversation. She's the unofficial family historian and may have asked Olle to interview Einar. On Jan 22, 2005, at 11:41 PM, Gonz wrote: Very nice Paul.

Very nice Paul. Its nice to have pics like this one. I have some similar pics of my Grandfather that I need to scan and share. What were they doing there? It looks like they were recording the conversation as in an interview or something. rg [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I shot this in Sweden 25

Thanks Juan. How true. And it's interesting that the kitchen is frequently the center of life for every culture. It's where the family comes together and takes their nourishment, so I guess it's natural that we gravitate toward the source of our food. Of course at one time it was the only room i

Thanks Keith. It was the only time I ever had a chance to see the place where my father came from. I was there for just two days on the tail end of a business trip. Both of these men are long since gone. By the way, they were speaking Swedish. Paul > I would have _loved_ to have seen more imag

I would have _loved_ to have seen more images, of other times... Your feel of what's important is well felt and portrayed! I'd love to have been a fly on the wall, as it's said... to hear what was being talked about. If I understood Norwegian? All of which makes it such a very interisting photo!
