2016-08-18 06:14:35 PM mberroa We did the history of our town. We pulled up these old pictures online of the area and they had so much to share. Then I looked up those places on Google Earth so they could see what they look like now. We even looked up their old addresses and it was so cool when they would see what their old house looks like now.
2016-08-18 06:14:42 PM kathyhughes great
2016-08-18 06:14:45 PM hayesmsthing great idea

2016-08-18 06:16:21 PM mberroa it was awesome to see their reactions to the Google earth view of their old house
2016-08-18 06:16:30 PM beccalr They can be used for both
2016-08-18 06:16:33 PM belindaf I tried pictures, didnt work very well, so I am going for physical stuff
2016-08-18 06:16:34 PM amber88 I took care of a lady whose husband was in the navy and was on one of the boats that got hit on Dec 7, 1941. He was the only one that survived on his ship. It was heartbreaking to hear the story but I love to hear stories like that. Part of history that you wouldnt know unless you talked to someone about it. You can read about it all you want but its different when you hear stories from someone who expeienced it
2016-08-18 06:16:45 PM amber88 in Hawaii i mean
