ABOUT THE PICTURE
OTHER STUFF
An inside joke. G.Sheridan/Tippy (not real names) repeatedly stated that I was a cyber-stalker because I figured out that G.S. was the same person as Tippy, although on different blogs. The photo is something I scanned and cropped from a 100 year old post card, of which I have a substantial collection.

So Tracy... I have never been able to figure it out. What is the story behind "I'll look for you" in your headshot image?

Tippy/GSheridan seemed really concerned about your alleged "cyberstalking", Tracy. While everyone is entitled to privacy on a blog, should they choose to post under a screenname, she's particularly sensitive about this to my mind.

Those are the only words on the card.
The picture is of the man in a tux, standing in front of a "Victorian" style chair, with those 4 words just as you see them. The card is dated 1912.
The card has a note on the back from Ray Hodges to his wife, Mrs. J.R. Hodges in Glencal Okla.
"Hello Dear,
Will send you a card. Will start for Mile City tonight. Write me there. I am OK. Hope you are the same, take care of yourself and boys.
Will want you to come soon. Guess the folks are back by this time. Write me at Mile City Montana,
Your Husband Ray"
So, in conclusion, I guess it means EXACTLY what it says. Apparently the Hodges are moving to Montana, with Ray as the "advance scout".
As he wants his wife to come soon, HE'LL LOOK FOR HER.
I HOPE EVERBODY HAS A SAFE AND PLEASANT MEMORIAL WEEKEND. TRACY / OUT.

Ya' know what?
I'd bet two dollars that the picture on the card is
actually Ray Hodges.
In 1912, it was VERY popular to have 'studio' photos printed on postcards.

Tracy, I meant to ask you if you've ever seen the Peerless Princess of the Plains book about early Wichita? It's out of print now, but if you ever get a chance (maybe at a library?) to look at it, I think you'd find it interesting. I know/knew one of the gentlemen involved in the collecting of the postcards used it in. Hal Ottaway. My dad had an autographed copy, but my mom wouldn't pass it on to me. I'll be sorting through her storage units during the next month. When I find it, I'll scan a few pages of it for you.
