My grandmother died in 2005. She did not own a computer. I think she could have mastered some computer skills, but she had plenty of interests and activities and friends to keep her engaged in the world. She wrote things down, not fictional stories but events of her life, both past and present. After she died, I was given the honor of keeping some of her writings. I thought starting a blog with them might be fun. I hope readers will find it enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by.

Slumber party
"June 12, 1992: Worked on west side of house. Nancy and Jenny came -- slept at Greta's.
June 13, 1992: Nancy and Jenny cleaned -- Jenny did the kitchen and Nancy the living and dining room. Washed the curtains and they came out perfectly.
June 14, 1992: New potatoes for dinner. Went to Helen's and got boxes of Irene's for Nancy and Merilyn's garage sale. Nancy and Jenny left early in afternoon."
I wonder how much laughing and carrying on occurred the night of June 12, 1992 at Mom's house.
New potatoes on June 14?! Wasn't Grandpa's goal to have them ready in time for Mom's birthday? Nicely done. Maybe that big snow helped somehow.
Photo of the garden -- I am still impressed how Grandpa kept such a great garden going year after year.
