Yep, I still use 'em. :o) Aren't they the neatest?Traceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09739922904822662425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1148009805785301392006-05-18T22:36:00.000-05:002006-05-18T22:36:00.000-05:00Hi Melanie, saw your name on someones blog today a...Hi Melanie, saw your name on someones blog today and didn't click through to see where you were. Then I saw it again on Carolyn's Lakeside Quilting and when you said Green Bay, I had to come and look you up..*VBS* I'm in WI..but over in West Central, west of Eau Claire. Used to live in Oconto, Wi tho, and have been up through your neck of the wood often. How are into the U.P. do you live? Would to hear from you..*S*<BR/>I was very surprised to see your keys....mostly because I have an ancient love affair with them myself, and so few people do. I suppose keys have become less common than they used to be. And increasingly more so.<BR/><BR/>One or two of my most favorite, beside the old skeleton keys, are roller skate keys. The kind you wore around yourneck on a shoelace or string. Have you seen those??<BR/><BR/>I'll have to come back and check your archives, I see quilts!!!Finnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17677133672404343036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1148008348628242412006-05-18T22:12:00.000-05:002006-05-18T22:12:00.000-05:00we had those skeleton keys for all the doors in th...we had those skeleton keys for all the doors in the house that I grew up in. Even the back door of the house had that type of lock. <BR/>We have a good collection of them to this day. I think maybe one should be on my key chain !Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505042214124811641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27246345.post-1148006507969767042006-05-18T21:41:00.000-05:002006-05-18T21:41:00.000-05:00Another thought-provoking phrase:For every key the...Another thought-provoking phrase:<BR/>For every key there's a story, what did it open ... what was it protecting?<BR/>I'm going to start keeping an eye out for old keys at flea markets.<BR/>I'm enjoying your writing!<BR/>Jeanne :) Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597301644404678019noreply@blogger.com
