My how times have changed in our households. Modern appliances and other inventions have afforded us conveniences that our predecessors didn’t have. Don’t you sometimes wonder what things were like a century or two ago?
Explore the past by looking at these vintage wares and try to figure out what they were used for.

Free range indeed!
When it got dark; time to go home.
School’s out; mom’s at work, kids on bikes going ANYWHERE they wished!
Maybe that’s why wandering is still deep in my bones today.
