Is it too late to do any good? |

There are collections of memorabilia from old time local families, scale models of mining equipment and other historical local occupations. I didn't have time to stay for a very thorough look, but I was taken with this collection of old woodworking tools. The tools my Papa used around house and yard when I was a kid were just like these.
Just a day or two ago I mentioned to brother-in-law, who is supervising installation of new flooring in their mountain house, that I think my grandson is interested in great-grandpa's old tools. BIL had me peek under the house at a wooden box, perhaps 12" x 36" x 8", which holds the oldest tools. I thought of putting the box in my car for the next time I see my daughter, but BIL said it must weigh at least 100 pounds. If daughter flies in, that clearly won't be transportable home.
As I drove out of town, I saw this sign, which is very sad, even without knowing the story.
See you tomorrow.
