No. 8

June 24, 1911

Without really intending to, I seem to be focusing (no pun intended!) on macros during this first month of 365 days/365 photos.  This, I believe, is my favorite (so far).

This my paternal grandmother's wedding ring, which I was given after her death (late 1987 or early 1988).  As I remember the story, she was 20 and my grandfather was 21 when they married in 1911.  Two weeks after they were married, they set sail for the Republic of Cameroon in central Africa, where they lived and worked as missionaries for the Presbyterian church for 50+ years.
