Mom

I keep getting little bits of family history from my mother. I need to go read old newspapers of the area and then ask her about different things.
Old newspapers have so much more than today's. I read today's and there just isn't the same type of hometown news. It's usually about bad stuff. They old papers used to tell when people went to visit someone or when someone had come to visit them. It had about people building new homes or moving away.
Why don't we cover the local news like that any more? I know, because our paper here is owned by some big company, and they don't actually have any really coverage here. If you want something in the paper, you have to write it for them. Hummmmm maybe I will start a local paper ~ online only. Anyone want to subscribe to my HAPPY HOMETOWN NEWS? I need some reporters.
