A FEW THANKSGIVING CHUCKLES

 

I hope nobody minds, but I had two different ideas for this weekend’s post and couldn’t decide which one to use, so I've posted them both. :[]





Filmore’s unfortunate birth defect.

    Very funny! And so true, too. I liked the first one best for its authentic history.

    Thanks for the laughs. I also liked the first one best, although the candlelight vigil was good, too.

CELEBRATED CHRISTMAS CARDS

CELEBRATED CHRISTMAS CARDS This is kind of long so you might want to pour yourself a cup of coffee or tea or eggnog before you start?  Maybe add a biscuit or two, or perhaps a slice of my Grandma Louise’s fruitcake? I’ve been known to choose lovely Christmas cards to send out to family & friends such as this cheerful neighborhood scene. Or this snowy one in the town of Groveland, California where we lived for 28 years. We had visited friends in Alaska the year we sent this card out. This was the card we sent for Christmas the year we met “Ella”, the little pigeon who suddenly flew into our lives.  I couldn’t have found a more perfect card. J And this one went out the year my Dad passed away shortly before Christmas.  It just seemed so right. Mostly, though, I like cards with a bit of humor.  This was the first card we sent out after my husband and I were married.  I forget how many I had to make with the combined list of his family & friends and mine,...

THE CHARMING VILLAGE OF CLOVELLY in DEVON, ENGLAND

Image
  Clovelly (pronounced Clove-ily as in happily or merrily) Harbor. The light-colored building on the left is the Red Lion Hotel.   Clovelly is an historic, car-free village nestled on a cliff known for its cobbled traffic-free streets and working port. Visitors can park their vehicles at the visitor center up top and either walk down or take a Land Rover service, which operates from Easter to October, to the harbor for a small charge. The Land Rover service is a convenient way to get around the village, especially for those with mobility issues or who prefer not to walk the steep streets. Donkeys traditionally carried goods up the hill (they no longer do, but are stabled nearby for visitors to visit with), while sledges bring things down, which is a unique feature of Clovelly.’   The village itself is best explored on foot on a cobbled street leading down to the harbor with a few narrow dead-end side streets.  There are 83 houses in Clovelly and all of them...

POSTCARDS FROM WASHINGTON D.C. TO BOSTON

Image
  With her somewhat tired but ever watchful expression, I wonder if Miss Violet was ever a chaperone? Over Easter vacation, plus an extra week in 1992, I was one of eight chaperones looking after 36 high school kids – including my youngest daughter – on a history trip from Sonora, California to Washington D.C. and on up to Boston and several historic places in between.  It was a wonderful trip and the kids were great.  This will be kind of a long post – even for me J – but it was hard to leave things out. Fun time!  Showing 36 teenagers from a small mountain town in California how to buy tickets from an auto dispenser & ride the Metro system in Washington D.C. during rush hour. I gazed at the White House from outside the fence, but never took the internal tour as the line was waaaayy too long! We went to Old Town Alexandria to see the cobblestone streets there where cars driving on them go “thumpita, thumpita, thumpita”, and trying to walk on them is a bit trick...
