The box.... the infamous box......
On Tuesday of this week, Mr. Schmidt called Darrin to let him know that he found a "box". Darrin was so excited (OK, so *I* suggested it), but we went down to Newport News to check out this box.
Fortunately, there was a book of family history and a few obituaries in the box for genealogical purposes. We spent all of Saturday evening looking through the rest of the box.. It was full of WWII newspapers fro Piqua and some important items (programs, flyers) from the 1950's-1960's. Apparently this box belonged to Beth Ellen, Darrin's grandmother!! There were some family obituaries in this box, and Mr. Schmidt was happy that we were interested in the box and the family history it contained.
While we were there, we helped his dad pull down the berry nets. We also watched Pirates of the Caribbean, while we had some wine and yummy pizza.
