8. When I was a tot, if I was REALLY GOOD, my grandma let me
go into her closet and open the box that held my grandpa's fedora. I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen!

9. I love these photos

keep posting them.

On edit - even we girls had to wear those suspenders back then. They were such a pain to fasten and unfasten. Good practice, though, for garter belts and stockings later on.
