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.

60 years
"February 18, 1994: Pinochle at Marie H.'s.
February 19, 1994: To Elmers' for their 60th anniversary.
February 26, 1994: Finished Mary C.'s quilt.
March 1, 1994: TOPS ate out at Geno's -- all present for belated Christmas party."
Is it just me, or does the TOPS club go out to eat a lot? Not that one can't eat healthily (is that a word?) at a restaurant, but . . .
Other than that, I'm coming up empty here. I had to actually work a bunch at work today, something that is very annoying when you would rather be creating a blog post, albeit a short one. But, it is good to have a job and all that, so I'm not really complaining. Just typing along to make this a teeny bit longer without it becoming too annoying in its lack of content.
It would be wrong to not post a photo of Uncle Elmer and Aunt Myrtle given the 60 years together being celebrated. So, here they are -- second and third from the left.

Marie H, Marie Hermann, a nice lady, spoke to our Sunday School once. All I remember was she spoke about "Little Jimmy", not me. She used to tell me about how she gave a speech at the Farm Bureau Convention on flag etiquette.

We need more flag etiquette, if you ask me. I had no idea Marie spoke at a convention. Good for her!
