I can't remember if ya'll remember me telling you about the Time Capsule I found in my attic about 4 years ago...it was made by a little kid around the age of ten who used to live in our house...I managed to track him down via his name Jon Miller that was inside the Time Capsule via the internet (it's a wonderful thang). I contacted his mom who had Jon meet us and it's been a wonderful relationship ever since. I've adopted Jon in my heart as if he were my own son and this afternoon I got to poking through his youtube music and found this...he's the sweetest young man and I think this was one of this early, early songs...hope ya'll enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSmwtqMUKEM
Jon calls me his 2nd mom so I get to brag on him... smile

What a neat story, Dee! I love Jon's music...I had a listen to his song "Instrument", very moving.

Oh Dee...I love stories like this! When was the time capsule planted? How many years was it there? How old was he/is he now?

I think time capsules are so neat!

Di he was about 9 or 10 when he hid his time capsule...when I found he he was in his mid-20's...so I'd say about ten years or so? He was sure surprised to get it and even more surprised that we found it. His Mom was tickeled to death. I don't have boys of my own to bragg on now, so I know Jon won't mind... smile
