[quote=Anonymous]Ask her? When my Mom couldn’t travel on her own, she really enjoyed revisiting local places that were important in her life — including the house she lived in when she was very young. She would often take pictures, and enjoyed sharing stories from her life. We went places like the Arboretum, the Botanical Garden, the Tidal Basin, etc. All of us enjoyed it, and it was an invaluable opportunity to learn about local history through my Mom’s personal experiences. Some of the things she most enjoyed were very personal and things that I never would have thought to ask about. I was able to track down specific kinds of fruit and candy that she remembered from her youth. Similarly, I did some baking for my uncle, and we all enjoyed having him share his memories and way-back-when stories. [/quote]
