It was an ordinary day. Looking over a variety of items that I have accumulated over the past fifty or so years. Many of the items deal with vacations that my wife, Carol and I have taken in the last 20 or so years while other items are mementoes that my wife and I have accumulated during our life together. As I sat, looking at the items, I realized that most are fairly recent, but then I realized that many items we had collected when we were young have been discarded since they have aged to the point of no longer being usable. Check out some of my choices and see if you too might like what we have collected. It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
