I started this blog because I am fascinated by our history. The times and the people and the places of long ago. I was in my twenties when my grandmother passed and in my teens when my grandfathers passed. I regret that at the time they were still with us, that I didn't have many talks with them about their lives and growing up. It wasn't until I was in my thirties that I started seeking out stories from family members and doing research at libraries and online to learn everything I could about my grandparents and their parents and so on. I have come across some amazing stories (that I will share here as well). Some happy and some sad but all so very interesting. I hope that if you are reading this, you, too, will share a bit of your history, regardless of where you are on this wonderful planet.
