Today has it's beauty too, and as you say, some day someone will think these were the best of times and the things we have are beautiful too.

I, like you, love these little shops with treasures of loved and cherished memories.<br /><br />Your pics really are special. Your words fill in the gabs. When I had my shoppe in an antique mall, I used to love to walk the aisles browsing for these keepsakes.<br /><br />Yes, the walls of these shoppes, the inn keepers and owners, really are "keepers of the memories."<br />One day we might contribute to the treasures!<br /><br />I also wanted to say, I remember the time when we had to be in when the street lights came on. Such a sweet, simple and easier time, before 24/7 TV. internet and cell phones. The time when a letter was really a letter hand written and cherished.<br />Thank you for sharing a thoughtful and beautiful post!<br /><br />Hugs to you and blessings always.<br />Celestina MarieCelestina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021633519525822335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20538248.post-22294083920726270542009-09-01T11:36:33.498-04:002009-09-01T11:36:33.498-04:00Wow!

They fill the home with charm and warmth and I really love the last one of your Aunt...so very, very beautiful because it shows her doing something that was part of her world and time...those days are gone, but do live in our imaginations!
