Good afternoon.
Mike and I have taken so many trips.
Of course you take pictures and more pictures.
This morning I took out a shoe box of photo and more.
going through with most of them.After awhile lost my interest.
Question?what do I do.I offered the photo to the kids.no luck
No ones want them.So what should I do? Mike does not want to get stuck with it.
Told when when I am gone.Just burned them.Do not worry about them.
So far looks like we are going to burned them.Not now.Later
The photo of all the ones we have.

Some time ago I went through all of my photos and decided which ones to keep. Some of them are in albums and some are in a box. I plan on the keeping the ones I have now. I am not sure what I would do in your situation. It is sad that your children don't want them.

@amadeo If my mother asked me the same question I would be happy to receive the photos - and I would keep them. My mother has my grandmother's photos. They are part of our family history.

Have you considered making up trip photo albums and storing them on thumb drives?
They could live on and bring delight years down the road.
AND......stop talking like you are going to leave us. 
That makes me so sad, I look up to you, and I am sure that there are others that do as well. We need you to be you, and show us your strength, please.

@amadeo Okay, don't scare me like that. We did clean up and we found a site to do up digital photo albums and then my husband saved them on thumb drives, and he labelled them. I still have a tote full of photo albums, some things I just didn't and couldn't part with.

Surely there must be a few pictures that your kids would cherish keeping. I have photos of my parents that I treasure.

@amadeo Hey! make scrap books with them and give them to the kids as a gift, this way they have your hand written message with the photos. I would have loved to know the story behind some of the photos I have from back in 1950.

Photo album of your travels in book form. That would be a lovely memoir. :-)

I have a lot of photos too, but I would not have the heart to throw them.
When Serbia was bombed and when we had to leave the house, the only thing I took was photographs and blankets

Don’t get rid of them. Maybe offer them up for free on Facebook Marketplace? Someone who is an artist might have a use for them.

I don't know how many you have, but I like to get mine out every once in a while and just think about times long gone by!!
