Old School

Lets get Old School, I find myself talking like my parents did. I make remarks like " I remember when I was a kid" or " "Kids now a days have it easy". I paid a visit today to lady in her 90s and when I walked into her house I see her making tea on the stove and I feel kinda nostalgic as when I would go to Grandmas house. Then I look over and she has her Ipad Charging and was in the middle of a email. It blows my mind sometimes when we think of our older generation using the technology of today and  yet there is a lot of our younger generation that wouldn't have a clue of the Items that where used 40 years ago.So when you go to Grandmas and are showing her the remote and make the comment "Its easy Grandma"! ..Let Grandma show you how to run a sewing machine to darn your socks or Have Grandpa show you how to run a 4 bottom plow behind a team of horses. 

I have in the past while taken a great interest in our Heritage of my hometown and seeing the lifes that our ancestors lived. Its truly a honor to speak to the people that come through my store and share there stories with me. I have a small display of what our City of Melfort was like.  A few relate to the pictures and have given me information to share with others. We create our own story and experiences so don't be scared to share it!!
