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.

Hope someone called Noah
"July 9, 1993: Over 1/2 inch of rain last night. Terrible floods in Iowa, Des Moines especially -- also in southeast Nebraska, southeast South Dakota and northwest Iowa.
July 13, 1993: More rain last night.
July 14, 1993: WELCA meeting.
July 16, 1993: Pinochle Club at Laura J.'s. Arlene R. took me to club."
It is a bit odd to read about flooding when we are currently in a drought. It's not always feast or famine; we just talk about the feasts and the famines. The photo is not from that year, but I imagine it took a great deal of rain or watering to get cabbages that big. Look at Anna's cute little bare feet!
