they were watchingTV, Patrick asked his Grandma when she was born. “I was born in
1943.” Patrick’s Grandma answered. Patrick wanted to know more about the past. He
wondered whether she went to school. Grandma told him that she went to school in
Mayville.
Then Grandma was asked if she went to school by bus. “No, dear. The living
conditions of the past were much worse than today. When I was young, most kids
walked to school. I had to walk three blocks to school.” “Did you watch TV or play
video games?” Patrick asked. Grandma laughed, “We didn’t have them.” Patrick
couldn’t imagine their life without these things. “No TV?” Patrick was so surprised.
“Was your life boring?” Patrick then asked. “Sometimes we listened to the radio or
played card games. On the weekend we mostly played outside, so our life was also
filled with happiness.”
It was time for dessert. Patrick quickly ran toward the kitchen. They were having
fresh ice cream! But then he stopped to 1ook at his Grandma, “Grandma, did you
have ice cream when you were a kid?” he asked. Grandma smiled. Patrick seemed to

people in my neighborhood. My first interview was with my friend Susan’s
grandmother,Mrs.Sanderson.

I walked to school with my friends, except for Fridays when we had to carry all of
our things for school sports. Then we caught the bus. I enjoyed walking because we

walker,and Ibelieve that’s whyI’vebeen healthy all my life.
