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.

Laurel Centennial
"June 11, 1993: Marjorie, Nick and Valerie visited awhile this evening.
June 12, 1993: Nancy came at noon. She had been at Laurel since yesterday p.m. for the centennial. She stayed with Karen Young last night. We visited at John and Helen's in evening.
June 13, 1993: Played Rummicube at Greta's in p.m."
I don't have a lot of memories about Laurel itself. I remember both the places Nancy and Jim lived outside of town but that's different. I do have a vague memory of being at the insurance office with Nancy once. It was a sunny day. I am going to go out on a limb and say the front window faced south. That's all I have.
Here's a photo of Nancy dreaming of insurance and a centennial celebration or two in her future.
