It's kind of an honor yet not very pleasant at the same time. First, my dad passed away a number of years ago and then, several years later, I helped my mom sort through reams of stuff to clear out the house where they lived for some 45 years so it could be sold. That "stuff" included old personal items, keepsakes, journals and other memorabilia.
That got me thinking about my stuff. I had a couple of boxes of things I accumulated over my 60-plus years so why not thin it out now to make it easier for my kids, or whoever, to finish the job whenever that happens?
Below are some examples I wanted to digitally save ranging from my early elementary school days to high school.
 |
| Pencil holder & "Mark Holyoak" rubber stamp (junior high) |
 |
| Sleigh made in welding class (high school) - We were given five basic shapes and asked to make something out of them using basic welds |
 |
Mold & belt buckle made in metals class (junior high)
|
 |
| Oven-baked creatures (elementary school) |
 |
| Not sure what this is |
