That Was Then.....small plastic figurines

I thought that I would share a very fond memory in my very first "That Was Then" post.  


When I was a young girl my grandparents had a cabin on Lake Cavenaugh in northwest Washington state.  I remember piling into the car for the 1 1/2 hour drive to the cabin.  I have so many fond memories of that cabin and the time that our family spent there.  Pictured at the left are small plastic figurines that my grandmother kept in a tin at the cabin for the grandkids to play with on our visits.  There was probably 30 or 40 figures that we whiled away the hours posing and playing with.  When my grandmother passed away I came across about a dozen of these.  I claimed them as mine and have kept them in a special place for many years since.  I take them out every so often and smile at the fond memories that they bring up.  I have a few more special momentos stored away in that special place that I will share with you on future posts.
