πŸ˜πŸ’Œ Dean Finds More Family History!


​

Hello Reader,

How Much History Can One Man Find?

​

Apparently a lot! This time on Dean's last visit he found an envelope stamped and dated from Smallman & Ingram in London Ontario where his grandmother Mabel used to work. Mabel was born in 1891 and started working at Smallman when she was only 8 or 9 years old. She eventually moved on to Kingmill's and then finally to Simpsons/Sears because they paid her .05 cents more a week! There she stayed and was the oldest living employee making it all the way to 103. I guess it's true what they say. Hard work pays off - at least five cents more a week anyways. 😁 What Dean Found Last Time​

​


Happy Family Day!

Hello Reader, It's a Jungle Out There and not just because we keep finding kittens inside our wall - The total sum to date is four! And counting... ha! (I laugh, but really, staying up late or being up in the middle of the night with a crying kitten is pretty low on my list of things to do these days. And I LOVE kittens!!) Get ready for a delightful journey into the enchanting jungle! Who knew we would almost have the biodiversity of the real thing? Unchartered territories, hidden treasures...

Hello Reader, What's That Sound? It has been a crazy couple of days here! We were going about our joyful business when suddenly all we could hear was a cat meowing - relentlessly, and it sounded like it was coming from inside the wall! Not that shocking because this is an old building so there have been stranger things. First, we cut a hole in the drywall exactly where the sound was coming from (or so we thought) and climbed up in the attic to look for gaps to no avail. We thought and hoped...
