    I visited the Garden of Gethsemane 55 years ago. They gave me a pressed Olive leaf from one of the ancient trees that were probably alive when Jesus was in the garden.

    Of course, being a 7 year old Ziglet i was more interested in the lizzards that were all over the trees :)

    Boy Zigs, you have saved a lot of things from your time as a Ziglet!! I have nothing at all from when I was an Annelet besides a sweater pin of little Bo Peep and her sheep connected by a short chain that my great aunt gave me when I was six. It has sat in my jewelery box for 66 years.

    That's a lovely thing to keep Annie :) I lost a lot of things when I didn't have anywhere to live but I kept a few small things :)
