My Grandmother's Scanned 35mm Slides (Virginia Moffitt)

This is what I gave my dad for Christmas. Since the 1950s, my grandmother had been saving a cardboard box of 35mm slides, of pictures that she'd taken over the years. Since she passed away last year, the box had been sitting in our basement collecting dust. The week before Xmas, I snuck downstairs and took the box, and started scanning and restoring them with a nice Epson photo and slide scanner that I bought. Many of them were so faded that you could barely tell what they were, but the restoration software cleaned them up really well. This is a sample of some of the 50+ year-old slides, which I presented to my dad on a DVD.
