I found a book written about it and my great -aunt was interviewed. It was very much a pioneer experience. The weird thing is we knew nothing about it. I learned from a cousin I met through Ancestry. My dad's older siblings were old enough to remember but they never talked about it.
I ate too much for dinner but they had creme brulee so how could I say no?
My family fell for another Canadian government program in the 1910s and moved to Manitoba from Pawtucket. They homesteaded for about a decade before coming back to RI (luckily for me or my dad would never have met my mom).

Accurate.
If people would just use Alt-text and say who it is, we could avoid it by word blocking. And really, I'm amazed at how often people don't use it for all images. It's a basic courtesy.
A circular necklace made of alternating dark and light cylindrical beads, with three larger flat, L‑shaped pendants hanging from the lower half, displayed against a black background.
This 6,000-year-old necklace offers a glimpse into the artistry of the Neolithic Schussenried culture in southwest Germany.
Its three marble pendants and jet‑and‑limestone beads create a striking black‑and‑white contrast, characteristic of the Schussenried culture's jewellery design. 🧵1/2

And your collection looks so elegant!
Oh wow, that is fab!
And now I have just realized that Found a Peanut and My Darling Clementine have the same tune!
Now that's a wonderful thing to make for a granddaughter!
We used to share phone accounts in college. Three or four of us would go in on one and keep it in the hallway with a little lock on the dial. One day a friend switched all the parts around so every phone was multi-colored.
Yay, I've been a big Barbie fan since childhood. Wish I still had them.

“When you notice your mental health declining, do one small thing that brings you peace. Take a shower, text a loved one, step outside.
One little step is all you need to remind yourself that this is not permanent.”

Most definitely a horse, just with a trunk and tusks.
Wait. Mom has to ride in the back?

Yes! I love this scene!
Referring to Edward Nugent!
I first spotted him in Our Dancing Daughters because of his handsome looks, then started seeing him in a bunch of films from that time period. I rewatched Forty-Second Street last night and there he was again.
It's lovely -- and I especially love seeing these two together to sing it.
That's a cute photo!
I like your Nan!
A friend has been here for over three hours helping me choose colors to paint inside my house. And I'm still overwhelmed. I want just six colors to choose from, not 1000.
