I realized there's a lot that depends on whether you're on the East coast or the West coast. I admit to cheating and combining Mark, Meredith and myself. :)
Are there Bluebirds/Campfire Girls around anymore? I was a Bluebird as well and think the mints they sold were far superior to the Girl Scout mint cookies.
I've been meaning to pop in here to say Hi. I met you at the L&L conference during the drumming sessions. I was there with my husband Chris, who was in the talent show drum line up with you. I also attended both your talks, which were wonderful.
Jess
Laura, I know! Where are "Walked on the Santa Monica Pier" and "Visited a volcano"?
Jess, hi! Nice to "see" you here! I hope you and Chris are still drumming. Thanks for the compliment on my talks. I really appreciate it. I read some of your blog today and loved it, but I'm glad you don't have too many stories like your June one! Ouch! :-)
Grandma Barb was a Harkins and always claimed to be Irish. Check with the San Diegan? You may have already been to the land of an ancestor there. And you were in England, land of the Minshull's!
An interesting post....
Enjoyed reading your list. I've read here before, but don't think I've commented. Always good to "meet" another Obama-phile.
