I was impressed. In a way it was like getting to talk to people whose stories have been lost.

Kerri, having your grandma’s stories is priceless. I agree with Anne, just knowing the little details of their lives is so interesting and even more so when it’s family.

My maternal grandmother took some time later in life, at my cousin’s request, to write down some stories of when she was young, and that is one of my most treasured “books” ever. Of course, paper was not exactly scarce then, but my grandma had raised children in the depression and of course she was still careful about everything like that.

That would have been a truly fascinating place to visit!

I would have been fascinated at the bookbinders also, Regina. And my children would have been getting restless as well!!
