TH - A post card from the days of snail mail

It was very exciting back in the day getting a 

personal letter in the mail.

I wish that I had kept them all but I did find this

gem, again, hidden in my photo box and from Nana.

 I loved writing letters, but all my aunts that would

correspond with me are no longer with us.

Quite sad all the way around.

 My gram wrote to me as well, we wrote to each other everyday.

And I can't tell you how much that meant when we

moved from PA to FL -

sooooo homesick. I wish I'd come across

one of her letters but alas.....

So I'm so glad I got to read this post card again and and also

get to showcase this as letter writing

seems to be a dead art.

Sad.

TH - My Nana's handwriting

Stumbled across this gem somewhere in my

photo box(es) LOL.

Not a great copy BUT it is my Nana's handwriting 

and it is chockful of information

on our Plummer gang.

 It was really helpful when I started my

hunt for them on Ancestry.com.

It kept me from going down an ancestry

rabbit hole and it's so easy to go there.

Lots of people named their kids the same names

same surname and some of the birth

dates actually match.

I can't tell you how many holes I fell in . 

Lots of Tim Holtz goodies to accent it.
