    Default Mom's Cedar Chest

    I acquired my Mothers cedar chest after her passing almost 17 years ago. I was looking for a document and thought it might be in there. Hadn't opened the chest in years. It's full of all kinds of stuff from 20+ years ago to the late 1800's. Tons of paperwork, miltary medals and documents, farming stuff, ect. to digest in there. A few items that I thought were cool.

    With the farms proximity to Shaw AFB grandaddy was a spotter for enemy aircraft. This book is well worn and easy to tell it was opened and studied regularly.
