Mostly about my backyard chickens. (Boring, I know), but there are a lot of us out here. Mine are only kept as pampered pets. I could eat a neighbor's chicken, but not MINE. There may be a comment on current events only if I get riled up enough. And there will always be a cartoon or a joke to cheer us. I promise to try my very best to respond to comments. Now I have to figure out how this blogger thingy works....
Gosh I remember all those things!.We lost more turtles! And the Lepages always had that crust on it.One thing though I kept having to scroll back to pic #4 to refresh my memory. I know, sory!
Remember hosiery stores? Nylons came in flat boxes with each pair wrapped in tissue paper. I was 13 when I could wear them for the first time (when I graduated from grammar school).
wish libraries still had card catalogs. much easier to use than screens.
