Museum of Ordinary Folks inspires a cultural museum idea
The author muses that antique malls reflect ordinary family memory more than museums. Objects like a meat grinder and a hand cranked beach toy become personal relics, linking youth to place and time. He imagines a Museum of Ordinary Folks with touchable items and direct quotes of family lore.
