For years Granny was a fixture at the veterinary clinic where Pam Bell works. As she watched this special little dog, Pam began to think about all the things that Granny had experienced, and how they would have appeared through her eyes. She decided to tell some of the stories that Granny had experienced during her time in the clinic. These stories are special and real. They are an authentic picture of what happens from day to day in a veterinary clinic. They are told from Granny's perspective.

Granny is a part of me and a part of many others who lived in the Deep South some 50 years ago or more. Her ancestors were of Scottish & English Descent. She is "overindulged" with superstitions and folktales. This book is a compilation of 'sayings' and tales I have heard over the years. Most of them actually came from my Mother and my Grandmother; and are now being retold through Granny. Many of these sayings are commonly known, but may vary with their phrases or even their meanings.

Staying at Grannys is a story about a little girl called Nikki who loves spending time at her grannys because Granny always had something new, Granny always had something to do and Granny always had a story to tell.

College students graduating now, probably never cranked a phone to get an operator to complete a call for them. Many may not have even heard of it. Many talk of dialing a telephone when they push buttons to make a telephone call, but don't know why its called dialing. Rotary dials that we use to dial to make a call have all but faded in to history. First ladies and losing nominees quickly fade in to a black hole. Telephone history, the people and the equipment is headed the same way. Books, not even history books, do not mention the great works of telephone men and women. Consequently, the history of telephony, its equipment and people are being forgotten. The purpose of this book is to create a history of these gallant people and their equipment. It is composed of short stories that describe the equipment and how unexpected predicaments affected their workday. Don worked over fifty years in telecommunications. Working with many telephone employees in both Bell System and the independent telephone industry. He enjoyed, not only the work, but also the fellowship he encountered through his association with the personnel in both groups. He found them all to be like one big family, which believed in good service to the telephone subscribers. With divesture, he took an early retirement from Ohio Bell. But, worked at other communication companies. During his employment, he told young engineers about the employees and equipment of the telephone system prior to Divesture. Occasionally, he would be told that he should write a book. He took it as a joke. When he was laid off from the last company, he decided to write a book so that the many conscientious telephone employees would not be forgotten.
