About Me
New to Digital Scrapbooking, just started in 2019, want to make a record of family stories before my mother passes away. My dad died in 2016. I currently live in Canada but was born and raised in New Zealand, and emigrated to Canada upon marrying my Canadian spouse. Home Country - lets see - New Zealand or Canada? Which to choose? Most of my photos will be from NZ, but any pics of my son will be from Canada. MY IP Address will say that I am in Canada which is fine. My mother and sister are still back in NZ so I will make my home country as NZ for now. For Facebook, I dont check it every day - I am not addicted to FB, and I use a different name for privacy. My image is myself as a child - aged about 2 or 3 years old

Type of Project
Digital Scrapbook LayoutDescription
Leonardo da Vinci was commissioned to cast a large bronze horse in 1482. Leonardo did make a clay model, but the original bronze model was never cast. The first clay model was destroyed in 1499 by invading French archers. A large 25 foot bronze model was finally unveiled in Milan in 1999.
