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.

I thought starting a blog with them might be fun. I hope readers will find it enjoyable. Thanks for stopping by.
