Before that it was somewhere in my grandmother's house - I'm guessing the basement. We cleaned out the storage unit a few months ago and now I'm sorting through all of this stuff. While some of it isn't in great shape, some of it looks almost pristine. Really amazing.Debi Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17409492643470603926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930899264249549964.post-61771015016149285252012-07-17T10:13:06.205-07:002012-07-17T10:13:06.205-07:00Debi,

Unfortunately my family did not get the packrat gene. But my grandmother did leave a scrapbook. It's fun to try to figure out what all the little mementos were and why they were significant.
