Old time photos and Grandpa

So this last few weeks I have  been trying to do some stuff that I keep putting off.  Here are some photos that I have played around with.  They are all from my Grandma.  They are prints (about 4x4 or 5x5 in size).
This first one is my Grandpa (far right) and his brothers.  Grandma's handwriting on the back says it is from Memorial Day weekend 1958.  Look at how tall Grandpa was!  I must have my height from Grandma's side!!





Here is an image of my dad and his brothers.  (my dad is appropriately "in the middle")  After scanning these images, I tried my hand at a little restoration.  Photoshop is pretty cool and very powerful...I just don't know much about restoration!





Here is another.  It is Grandpa and two of his kids (my uncles) from June of 1963:





Here is one with Grandpa and my uncle Gary.  I turned one black and white to  mess with it:





Here is one of Grandpa from a trip around the Olympic Peninsula in 1947!  I miss Grandpa!  He was my favorite person in the whole world and he passed away almost 5 years ago.



Here are a few photos of Grandpa the summer he passed away.  He was playing with Rob in the back yard other wise he would have never let me take these photos:
