Olive Horrell was born on an old farmhouse with no electricity over 97 years ago.
In her earliest years, her only form of transportation was by a horse and buggy, she had no idea what a radio was, and the first computer she ever laid eyes on was a behemoth of a box that was only meant to punch time cards.
As the years passed by, she's lived through some of the world's most incredible events: commercial flight, WWII, the Cuban Missile Crisis, Neil Armstrong's moon landing, and the invention of the internet.
But over all those years, she's always held a special interest in the never-ending advancement of technology.
While she may not necessarily understand a lot of the most up-to-date tech out there, she certainly likes to learn about it. So when she was given the opportunity to make a "Wish of a Lifetime," she thought about it for a bit before finally coming up with an answer: she wanted to see what the future had in store!
So of all the places to take this woman to educate her on the future of tech, they decided to bring her to the offices of Google to check out what they're working on.
They showed her all sorts of the most advanced future technologies like self-driving cars and face-detection, and answered all of her questions about "the cloud."
When the day was done, she was utterly in awe of all the things that they've been inventing. When asked if she could ever imagine what she'd witnessed, she only replied with her jaw on the floor, “Certainly in my wildest dreams… I couldn’t conceive of what I saw today.”
