I often wonder if they had lived during this timeframe instead of the early 1900's - would they blog? Strangely one of the reasons why I blog is to leave my story behind. With no husband or children - I guess I'm afraid I won't be remembered. .-= Sherry Ott´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.ottsworld.com/blogs/porters-of-the-annapurna-circuit-2/" rel="nofollow">Porters of the Annapurna Circuit</a> =-.

She kept these in a little chest, which she said I was to have when she passed away. Unfortunately, I was serving overseas when she died, and returned home to find my uncle had burned them all 'It was just a lot of old papers ... you wouldn't have wanted them' I thank the Lord he was only my uncle because he married my aunt ... I'd hate to think I was a blood relation to such a moron! .-= Keith´s last blog ..<a href="http://travelrat.wordpress.com/2009/12/07/re-enactment/" rel="nofollow">Re-enactment</a> =-.
