Restoration Memories
On April 18, 1906 at 5:11 am, David Albers would not have existed in the future, at 5:14 he would.
A call from the San Francisco Medical Examiner guaranteed David Albers' day would be like no other. Given up for adoption the day he was born, he had zero information concerning the identity of his parents or his heritage, until the call telling him his father was at the city morgue.
He finds a cache of faded photographs at his father's apartment and takes them to Restoration Memories for repair. It turns out the studio can do more than restore old photographs. It has a method that allows David to step into the living moment in time the picture was taken.
He meets his parents in 1947, his grandfather in 1906, and escapes from the KKK in 1874 with the help of his great-grandmother. He attends Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in 1885 and has lunch with his twelve-year-old mother at the Stockton State Hospital for the Insane in 1932. He adventures into the past...to help reconcile his present.
We exist, he concludes, while dancing in the Mural Room in 1942, because of a million possible intersections of the past. If not for this, that. If not for that, this.
