[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of this is generational. My parents generation just stopped by friends’ and family’s houses unannounced for a visit. It’s why we always had a coffee cake at hand. They brought vacation photo albums and shared stories. My generation had MySpace then Facebook and that replaced home visits and photo albums in a sense.

My parents were born in 1947 and 1950 and never stopped by anyone's house unannounced, including not even at my dad's twin sister's house which was only 20 minutes from ours. Nobody stopped by our house unannounced in the 70's, 80's and 90's unless they were selling something. [/quote]

I guess PP should have said that gregarious, social people who like to share have always done this.  I remember sitting through people’s slideshows of their vacations when I was a young adult and I still my parents generation comparing “what my grandkids are up to” sometimes with photographic support when they run into each other at the grocery store.

Of course every generation also has people who call before dropping by to visit/only talk about travel when pressed/don’t take pictures/hate social media/whatever.  But for people who like to chat, there have always been ways — were social animals.[/quote]
