Interesting pix and comments, most of witch are shared by me......

and I gave most of the family tool/collectible stuff to my kids already....

need dump a TON more....but they/I have skipped a couple generations....

Mom/Dad were 40 by time I was born...sis is 17 years older than me.....

I was 38-40 when my kids born.....so a lot of this generational recognition has skipped a beat in my life.....my grandkids are early single digit, and I"m pushing 74 now.....and the sad part is, they WAY in hell across the nation...not any next door stuff....hours on a jet......

I think you all covered just about everything, but I will add carrying a pocket knife everywhere, to school, sporting events, on an airplane, etc.

Learning how to write in cursive and not just your signature.
Using an encyclopedia and not Google.
