"Memories of a Depression Baby" paints a vivid description of surviving as a kid growing up during the Great Depression. Times were hard, but kids always found a way to amuse themselves in spite of the hard reality of the times. There was very little money to spend on entertainment, so we devised our own methods of amusement. "There were no televisions, cell phones, video games, iPods, etc. Heck, we didn't even have electric typewriters, but we thought we had it all. We just didn't know any differently. Eventually, this generation put us on the moon and helped to invent many of the electronic wonders of today."
