Subject: RE: BS: Acts of Recalling to Mind (Heart)
I have the only ice cream scoop that I can remember our family owning and using. That's the closest thing I have to the types of things you ladies are talking about.

However - I own a .32 caliber rifle that my Grandfather used to keep on his tractor in North Dakota to shoot wolves. Of course this was before the depression. And I have my father's bible that was given to him when he was very young. And his pocket watch. All of that falls under the heading of "guy stuff".

But I'd have to say that one of my prized possessions is a chest of drawers that my father made from scratch as a shop class project when he was in junior high school. It stands close to four feet tall and has has around 9 drawers. All small. We keep candles and playing cards in it since all the drawers are so small. My sister has a pipe stand that my father built for his father. It's pretty special too.
