Grandma turns 101

Yesterday Grandma Higdon turned 101.  101!

We got to chat on the phone. 

"It’s amazing the things I can tell people that they have never heard about.  That’s how old I am...

The brain is powerful…I’ve been thinking about all the things in my lifetime.  In the classroom where I went to school when I was little.  It’s nice to be able to remember all of these things" 

She told me that recently she has been able to remember events and people in her life that she had long forgotten.  It's like she is viewing her life story. Which makes me think that she's not going to live that much longer.  
"Hope I get to see you again before I leave this place."

Did I hear...road trip?
