They call us 'The Elders'

15. I remember back when I was a little kid, younger than ten

The biggest thrill was getting to stay with my grandma for a week. She was born in 1888, and all during her life, she kept scrap books of newspaper clippings reporting on stories and headlines of the day. I spent many amazing hours looking through her scrap books, seeing such events like the assassination of President McKinley, the start and ending of both world wars, Charles Lindbergh's first trans-Atlantic flight, and so many other important events we studied about in history class, events she lived throigh and told me about as we paged through all her scrap books.
Those were times I'll never forget.
