My grandmother passed shortly before Thanksgiving, and while cleaning out her house we found boxes and boxes of old memorabilia. She never threw away a single card, letter, or personal document that she'd accumulated over the years, including some schoolwork from when she went to primary school in the early 30s. It's all tucked away in my parents house now, but if this thread survives to the weekend I'll scan some of it.

I always think it's interesting to see what kids were learning about in the past.

At the very least, it's surprising that a family of 5 adults has a hard time affording two cars. Different times, I suppose.
