My dad<br />made me a cedar trunk<br />when I was in college<br />and also refurbished<br />his grandma's trunk<br />for me {she is my name<br />sake, Susannah} which<br />she brought with her<br />through Ellis Island<br />when she was 12 and<br />came here ALONE. I<br />also have a darling smaller<br />trunk that I bought at<br />a junk store and that I<br />keep wrapping supplies<br />in.
