The End of An Era


After more than 35 years with the same phone number, my parents just canceled their landline and went all cellular.

Monumental. Someday soon we'll be explaining to our kids that phones used to be wired.

What a great picture of a beautiful implement that used to be omnipresent and nowadays is practically nonrecognizeable. It is difficult to give up the things we are comfortable with.

Sad. Thats one of the only numbers I have memorized.

I was just chatting with Lorin about the fact that we used to share a land line with three other families and now we have 4 different numbers that reach just us. I gotta give up the land lines too.
