About Me
- PJM
- I grew up in West Texas, and could not wait to get away. I got away, and went to the University of Texas, and then on to Stanford. I saw the world, and decided what I really wanted was to be in West Texas. So here I am, right back where I started. I had it all, and found it was not that great.

I find it so sad that many photographers did not take the time to find out the name of the person whose picture they were taking...
ReplyDeleteThe wrap for the baby may be an early form of the bundeling mothers are encouraged to do today. It is said (by my daughters) that wrapping the baby tightly makes it more settled because it resembles the conditions found in the womb. I suspect that the indian baby wraps had more to do with moving the baby safely since many tribes were moving frequently in search of game, etc.
ReplyDeleteIs beautifull

ReplyDeleteThe scarf caught my eye. It appears to be silk or satin. Very nice photo I have never seen before.
