Yes, JD, when you get our age it kinda comes down to a collection of memories and mementos, stuff that reminds us of the chapters of our lives, and the people and things that are part of the nearly-finished book.
Here’s my table: my dad built this back in the 30s, before I was born, for his sister. It’s made of red cedar, and like yours, it can handle two or three leaves.
