We have all shared many good childhood memories while growing up in Everett. If we were to document those experiences on-line, we could leave behind a legacy for our children's children that would allow them to know their ancestors on a very personal level.

They would not only know who their great-grandparents were, but would also get to know our friends and acquaintances. They could read first person accounts of our life experiences. It would give them an honest perspective of what life was really like in our time. Think about that. Don't you wish you had the opportunity to know your ancestors to that extent?

Take a close look at this 3D replica of our desks and chairs from our elementary school days in Everett. Remember how the solid cast iron supports were bolted down onto those hardwood floors?

Lying on the floor is an exact replica of the Parlin School Character from the early 1960's. I had to write that out so many times that I knew it by heart. It's funny how I can look back on all that now and smile. Never thought I'd see the day. Did you?
