Reflecting on the Past

A while back when I had more hair, my son was creating a report on Helen Keller and for that he wanted to trace a picture from the front of a library book. In the past, we had traced pictures by first taping them to a window, but this was a book cover so that would not work. We did not have any tracing paper either.

But I did have a piece of glass in the garage, so using the glass and cereal boxes on our kitchen table, I set up this arrangement.

This second photo helps to show how it works.

I don't recall how the overall report turned out but I thought the picture was great.
