(We saw them every six months or so because we lived about 1500 miles away.) The phone was seldom used, mostly for business or to report a death in the family, and long distance was fairly unreliable, just like cell phones are today...out of area, not charged, no network signal. I know they will be better someday, but the land lines seem so reliable now.<BR/>Now I understand better about giving up that link with those you love. I bug my own offspring to death, calling if they are late, to assure myself that they haven't crashed somewhere. I still don't hug so long a goodbye, but I feel like it sometimes.<BR/>Blessings to your Grandmother in Romania.Lilibethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04031218249072893776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4887665407196746305.post-90893313525492119282008-05-11T21:59:00.000-04:002008-05-11T21:59:00.000-04:00So you have a grandmother in Romania!

The people there were so warm and hospitable during the 4 months that we lived in Bucharest back in 1973.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you that telephones are not the best way to communicate. But they are the only way when people live far apart.Granny Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18214748856516412924noreply@blogger.com
