Seeing the joy of discovery on a child’s face or watching them learn a new skill or develop a new talent is just plain fun, no matter the cost in money or time. Expectations of our children. We raised our children to expect more involvement.

Most food at the grocery store came from the USA. Gasoline stations did not serve food, have coffee or provide bath rooms. People listened to the radio, watched TV, went to the local (one screen) movie house or entertained themselves. There wasn’t a restaurant on every corner and people didn’t eat out much.
