Memories of a Small Town
Did you come from a small town?
This could be just like any other small town USA, with the old buildings, and it's proud people from an era gone by, living in a much simpler time.
A time when people depended much more on themselves, and didn't give the government much thought in helping them with their struggles.
In fact, saking the government for help, except during the depression, wouldn't have even entered their minds. Self-sufficiency was the only way to live. Yes, they were a stronger people.
Join me on a trip back in time to meet those people, and see the sights of a much simpler time.

Where Did All the Easter Parades Go, A Trip Back
Remember a time when Easter was fast approaching, and your mom would take you out shopping for a new suit, dress, and/or shoes? You would come home, and carefully put them away in anticipation. You were now all ready for that Special Easter Sunday appearance. First in Church, sometimes very early for the even more special Sunrise Service. Followed by Easter dinner, with all of your relatives and the Easter Egg hunts with your siblings, and cousins.
Join me in another trip down memory lane to a simpler time of dressed up fun in the Easter Parades.
Easter in the early 1900's. Have you ever wondered what it looked like for the Easter Holiday in the 1920's. What were the ladies wearing, what were the kids up to, and what they did special for Easter. Here is what a simpler time looked like, and tasted like too!
