Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement.  Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    I was born a year later to the day I like the maple syrup in the picture- mostly cause it makes me feel a touch of myself in being Canadian- none the less I love the pictures very fun to look and see what was going on in Jamie’s life on my birthday, before I was even around.

    This was the day I was born, and I’m tiny! So “Midget Horse” is actually quite fitting.

    On this day I was hit by a car while riding my bike, I had just turned 10 years old eight days before. I broke my leg, have a scar now in my forehead and behind my head. It was a great summer!

    I play the harp, so this photo made me smile. (There are a lot of music photos here, but I wasn’t expecting to see a harp!) There aren’t too many male harpists around, so it looks like this might be a shot of Henry Fanelli, who has been the pit harpist for Phantom of the Opera since its opening in 1988.

    I was born this day in Montrose, Scotland. There was an American lady on the ward that wanted her baby to be born on Independence Day. Her child was born a couple of days later. The time of my birth apparently caused some acrimony. This picture is a lovely counterpoint.
