I can't remember who said it-- maybe Scarlett was complaining about... what was the name of the young slave girl portrayed by Butterfly McQueen? I plumb forgot! The conversation is always lively at Life in a Shoe, especially when it comes to politics! Thanks for visiting. God bless! Howdy, Momma, and thanks for visiting!

My husband always tells our Lambies that they are "slower than molasses in the winter". I didn't know it came from Gone With the Wind. I have read it, but it didn't register! I appreciate your thoughtful remarks in regard to my comment on Life in a Shoe. We all have lots to think about! Blessings! How funny!

I usually frown on links in my comments, but your websites seemed genuine and genuinely interesting! I've actually never heard of cobblestone tours. I'll do some searching about it, as it sounds interesting. My husband loves cobblestone houses. I'll be linking to you on my blogroll. Maybe you'd do the same for me. :D Looks like I have a new NY traveler friend! Hello, Sue, and thanks for visiting.

I wrote a guidebook called "Cobblestone Quest - Road Tours of New York's Historic Buildings" that tells the history of building with cobblestones and provides 17 driving tours to see these pioneer unique structures. One of the tours is just west of Syracuse. You can view parts of the book at footprintpress.com. If you'd agree to do a cobblestone tour (some day - not necessarily with your upcoming trip) and write about it in your blog, I'd be glad to send you a free copy. Just email me your mailing address. Also, for ideas of things to do around New York State, you might want to peruse my blog: newyorkoutdoors.wordpress.com Have you thought of doing a driving tour of cobblestone buildings when you head toward Syracuse?

A Victorian lady's encyclopedia of decorum and womanhood (had the weirdest recipes, too) from the 1880s. A children's book of nursery rhymes, with original lithographs (1879). They all burned, as well as all my artwork and paintings I'd done through the years. Needless to say, I'm a bit jumpy about house fires! Thanks for your sentiments. Life goes on. :) I deeply regret losing that book, and some of the others. some were so delightful!
