Nostalgia

Ya'll know I have said before that I am really nostalgic.  I love old things.  I love to imagine and think about the simplicity of other eras.  My mom and dad's basement is full of stuff.  It is frightening how much stuff but at the same time, I know there are treasures down there.  Here are some treasures they have found recently as they were cleaning up from the unfortunate "winter flooding". 

This is my great-grandmother's examination tablet from her horticulture class from 1914.

Go BUCKS!

Can you tell how beautiful and neat her handwriting was?

Amazing!

Isn't this a neat old mailing label?

Notice the "Made in the U.S.A."

This is my grandma.

Do you get a "Congratulations" nowadays for purchasing an item?

Maybe...but I still think it is kinda cool.

These really cool "Libbey" glasses are now mine. 

They came with a serving tray.

How cool!
