Old Fashioned Advice … that still works
If you listened to your Grandma, you probably heard her give you some good advice when you were young.
Maybe it’s time to dust this old wisdom off
And consider it thru fresh eyes —
and the ways in which these old truths apply to life today.

Show Info:
Most of the advice and homilies that we heard time and again in our families were time-tested and life proven. They give us insight into humans …. and humans haven’t changed all that much since the time we first showed up on this beloved earth.
Styles change, knowledge grows, and people travel to all the far-flung areas of our world (and sometimes other worlds) but basic human nature seems to cling to certain ways and means of dealing with the world and with each other. Maybe that’s why the older you get, the smarter your Mom and Dad become, at least to you.
Come on back and refresh yourself with some good old fashioned, down-home truths on Mountain Mama Radio. You’ll hear echoes of things past that feel “right’ in things present.
We’ll search the world over and bring you guests on the show that can share some wisdom and advice on subjects from child rearing to the baby boomer years and beyond. Things that everyone may need a little help with at some time in their life.
Join us on wsRadio.com, live every Monday night at 8PM Pacific Time or listen to the show on the archives at any time. Come on over and visit with us for a while.
About the Host
A Daughter of the Mountains
I’m a true daughter of the mountains of West Virginia — some 10 or more generation. My roots go back through Jamestown Colony to England and Scotland and thru Philadelphia to Holland. Some of my ancestors came here as soldiers, some as bound servants, some to escape religious persecution, and some just to seek a better life. But all of them brought with them a sense of adventure and the willingness to go, see and prevail — some of them over the worst kinds of hardships.
Lots of stories came down to me through my family; the oral tradition was still strong when I was a child. I remember going to family reunions, church socials, ramp dinners, square dances and Sunday school. Everywhere I went the old folks talked all day, told each other family stories, old and new, and I sat and listened or ran and played — but always came back to hear what the “grownups” were saying.
They didn’t tell us how to live — they lived and let us watch.
So here I am …. 71 years old with most of those years spent in the advertising and broadcast business. I have become a complete nut about computers and the Web where I spend most of my time now having a wonderful time producing and hosting Web radio shows. The world is at your fingertips with the Internet. It’s the only thing that makes me wish I had born 30 years later so I’d have more time to “play” on line.
I’ve traded the West Virginia mountains for the mountains of California, and have lived, worked and played in lot of places in between, But as my former husband used to say, you can’t take the country out of the gal … and I’ve found that no matter where I go, what I learned from the family has stood me in good stead — whether in the dining room of the United Nations or marching with Dr. King through Atlanta.
Hold steady, observe, adapt and be very certain of your ability to survive. You may be a little frazzled sometimes, maybe frightened, sad and discouraged, but you can always survive if you always believe in your own worth.
