    I took this photo in 1988.
    I was visiting the Grand Canyon and I saw a squirrel on the rock looking out over the canyon and I had to take a picture to capture it.

    Happy birthday!

    It's nice your memory's still in tact. I've been 29 for decades. :)

    I remember the day that my leopard seat tricycle was stolen off the driveway when I left it out during a dust storm.
    To say I was upset would be an understatement. 😭

    I remember a sad time in my life... a couple years ago, maybe more. I had to leave this wonderful community. At that time I wore a different hat and folks here knew me as RiderOfWestern.

    Its good to see you 🤗

    I remember the only time I attempted to bake bread.
    It ended up weighing about 10lbs and would have made a good weapon if used to wallop someone in the head.
    I never tried again.

    I remember the giant silver mixing bowl at Mom's house had three uses

    1: mixing cake mix
    2: popcorn
    3: stomach virus bowl 🤮

    I remember the nun in third grade making me eat crayons because I talked in art class. I got 2 down before I tossed my cookies. Gotta love those nuns. LOL

    I remember not getting my first calculator, a basic 4-function (add, subtract, multiply, divide) until I was taking calculus. Meanwhile, my kids were allowed to use their phones to "help" in math class during pre-algebra.

    I remember kindergarten involving cursive writing and crayons. Now, they're typing and using iPads and chromebooks.

    Yes, I was once told that I should make sure anything I post was suitable for grandmothers. Seeing as I am friendly with quite a few grandmothers and my own grandmother was cool AF and I am not too far from grandmotherly age myself, I was very confused. But you know, bygones.

    I have lots of fond memories and memories that provide me with an abundance of nightmares....One memory is that of a friend that I met when I was attending the Foreign Service Language School in Rosslyn, Virginia....It was Shirley Temple and her husband Charles Black. They both became good friends of mine....we had some fantastic fun and did share some fond times....I was so sad when she passed away.....

    How lucky you were to have been friends with Shirley Temple!
    She seemed like such a kind, compassionate person. 😊
