I will ditto what Kelly said....I sure wish we had more photos and journaling of the mundane things in my parents and Grandparents life. My husbands grandparents homesteaded (we still live on the homestead) in 1910 with no electricity or any moden conveniences. My FIL said when he left to go to school (on a horse) his mother would be scrubbing clothes on the wash board and when he got home from school she would be in the same place....I just can't imagine doing laundry ALL DAY! If anything would prompt me to do this, it would be for my children & grandchildren to see how far they have come.
