In 1969 when our parents departed from Wyoming they brought with them these two school desks from Mother's classroom at Eastside. Our boys used them and then Joleen and Shannon held long school sessions seated there.
Later, Ben used them during grade school. Then various grandkids thought the desks were just right to conduct their business and the desks moved from house to house. Maybe that is why they look a little battered.
The desks just found a new home with these two kids. The stools were something that Bob created. They are almost as old as the ownership of the desks. Lots of kids, both in the classroom and in various family homes, have spent hours at these desks learning to write, draw and coloring with wonderful crayons. Forgot to mention learning to cut paper into a zillion pieces with scissors

I wonder what Grandma would say if she knew how much use we would get out of these 2 desks? Can you think of anything else you have from her that has been so loved AND put to good use?
