After a decade, I finally opened my great-aunt's sketchbook
It was full of drawings from her travels in the 1960s. I always meant to look through it, but life got in the way. Seeing her art made me feel like I was there with her.

Scan those pages right now before you put it down. Get a basic scanner app on your phone, use good light, and save them all to a cloud folder. Share the link with your family, because that connection you felt is the whole point. It’s too easy to put it back on the shelf and forget for another ten years.

Saw a piece about how most family history gets lost between moves or just time passing. @the_lily is totally right about doing it now before it slips away again.
