When we went through last year, I felt that my whole life was flashing before my eyes. I felt the (fairly whacko) spirit of Bronson Alcott arise within me. These are the formers, for better or worse, of a good part of my imagination! Yikes. Love that Louisa May. Just imagine if your dad had gotten a moldering old house and smacked it on the back of your already moldering house... or your husband for that matter. What a crew!

If it makes you feel any better, I got all choked up when I saw the wild ponies on Assateague - I think I memorized the "Misty" books when I was a kid. I couldn't believe they were really real!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07790839484765673451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-808628134057039702.post-31660181238187422482012-03-08T15:21:05.428-08:002012-03-08T15:21:05.428-08:00Yearly, I make the trek to Orchard House.

I love the town of Concord, it's rich history, wonderful old homes and of course poets row. All very moving. Thank you for this wonderful post, sending well wishes.

You're words inspire me everyday. I'm so happy and so proud I am able to call you my mother. You are incredibly strong and exceptioanlly talented. Through the thick and thin, we'll always be close.

I hold the same curiosity as you do, for whatever reason, homes speak to me in the most profound way. It's just a knowing and an interest that goes beyond words. The connection we feel is deep, and again, beyond words I can find.<br /><br />I recently had this happen when I went to the play "Becoming Eleanor" she was Queen of England and Queen of France (Eleanor of Aquitaine), I have such a deep connection with her for some very odd reason.<br /><br />This post was special, and I learned from it. Blogging is about feel good moments and not so feel good moments and a good history lesson too!<br /><br />Love sent to you and all you love.<br />Jacqueline<br />Once Upon a FairylandAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04942436730835255946noreply@blogger.com
