Title: Tradition Kids photographed each year in same spot
Post by: ICEMAN on February 21, 2009, 07:02:20 AM: Here is a tradition I started with my kids, where I photo them in the same spot each year so I can see how much they have grown. I may have to get the GPS coordinates of this spot as it grows in more....

Here are my pics, 4 years on digital. I have one earlier year I need to scan and digitalize.

Anyone else do this?

Our youngest daughter grew up in the woods cause we were always out doing something, and now she's a Seattle yuppi and has been for a doz. years. I can't get her and her hubby to go out there with us. I wonder if she ever will come to her senses? :dunno: The other 2 girls love the outdoors as well as the 2 boys.

I've only got time lapse pics of the kids at some of the same fishing holes and hunting spots. Nothing that precise.

Thanks for sharing.

There was this huge tree and we all held hands around the trunk. It took 11 of us from 2 up to adults to get around that tree. Later it got struck by lightening and took the top off. Then they cut it down because it became a hazard to drivers. It was cool.

Post by: quadrafire on November 01, 2010, 08:17:17 PM: Those holes are where the Loggers put the boards to support them while they were cutting, I think. Cool.
Nice idea. We have boring before school pics, but this gives me ideas. thanks!

Post by: ICEMAN on November 01, 2010, 08:53:15 PM: Yep, definitely springboard notches, only way to get a tree down back then.... I have a few old misery whip/saws from the day and am still looking to collect a springboard ...if anyone knows where I can get one..... Thought it would be cool to have hanging on the wall by these pics!
