LOL,I didn't finish what I was going to tell you about why I'm making this scrape book:), I swear I think I'm getting senile.

I didn't want to throw them out so I posted an article here on FR to find out if those papers where worth anything. They're not. But someone suggested doing this, and passing it down to the kids/grandkids. I thought that was a good idea. I also have a big stack of Life/Look magazines. They are worth a tiny bit, so I'll leave them intact altho they are not in mint condition.

You just never know when those old articles will come in handy. Many many years ago, there was a barn fire at our old fairgrounds. I had saved the clippings. It was front page news because two people had died in the fire. They were caretakers for the many Standardbred horses stabled there. 21 horses died also.

When my 4-H club had a booth at the fair, about 10 or so years later, I posted the old clippings. It was a booth about barn safety. So, many people came by and stated that they remember that fire.

I was going to mention before how much I like Harley's cute little ears. My Appaloosa had big ears, and people made fun of him. I always said "you don't ride the ears"..lol
