Tidying Up Inside

Dear Liza,

Auntie Bridgett is expecting a delivery of a book project she’s been working on, so we needed to make some space in the garage. We have quite a few boxes we haven’t even looked in since we moved up from Salinas, so it was time to re-evaluate some stuff.

We waited for a warm day so we could have the garage door open and pull the car out, and hauled boxes from all the far corners and under-stair cupboards. While we were shoving and pulling, there wasn’t time for pictures.

But we found some nifty things!

A pile of postcards sent to your Daddy David and Auntie Katie from your great-grandparents when they were traveling around the country…

….Memories from Auntie Katie’s Drama class at York School in Monterey, and her bat mitzvah….

…. And memories from long ago visits to Disneyland with Rick and Sheila.

We also found some hidden treasures, probably gifts from my adopted Grandpa Phil Conway, in the form of old, old coins. I have no idea what these are worth, but will browse the ‘net and see what I can find out.

All told, it was a busy, get-stuff-done-day, and we were happily exhausted by the time the garage was put back together.
I will tell you about the delivery when it happens! (Insert dramatic music).

Love,

Grandma Judy
