Adventures in Grammy and Mom's hometown
Today Grammy and I headed to my hometown to pick up some stuff he no longer wanted. Grammy pointed out homes she lived in, as well as her grandparents. It's amazing to me how many generations have stayed in the same area. We saw the house I grew up in and walked around the property. I showed them the scariest basement ever, which isn't nearly as frightening as I remember. Sofie and Samantha enjoyed the cat most of all I think, but the abundant space was a source of enjoyment too! On our way home, we stopped by the cemetery to pay respects to my grandparents and Grammy's siblings who have passed on. We also toured the town, showing the school and landmark bridge (the town's only claim to fame that I'm aware of). Samantha listened to the stories we told and it felt good to share some history with the next generation.
