Old pictures of everyday life!!! Lack of them in my family

I really enjoy the old pictures many of you guys have of just everyday life in days gone by. There are very few of them in my family. I would guess that the cost was a concern in years past.

There are only two or three pictures of my maternal Grand Father known to exist. There a just few more of my fraternal Grand Father. There are darn few of any older family members.

That is the great thing about the digital cameras in that they are pretty cheap and you can save pictures at almost zero cost.

Now the down side to that. With most pictures saved in some type of digital format and few actually printed, how will that be in the future??? Will a computer of a 100 years in the future be able to open the digital photos we take today??? Will it be like the old 30mm films of the 1950s?? You can have them converted but it is not cheap.

Just wondering about that.

Another funny thing. There are hundreds of pictures of my oldest son. Just about every few months of his entire early life is saved in some photo or another. Then it seems to slowly taper off as we had more children. The youngest has baby pictures and most early birthdays. Then it is mostly school pictures.

My oldest used to tease his young sibling about it. He would tell them that since the first try was "perfect" pictures where not needed for the rest of them. LOL Smart butt.
