My Second Tag

Posted on by

The other tag has come from the tile lady @ http://daughterm.blogspot.com/  

So, I am supposed to list 7 random or weird facts about myself and then pass it on (This is harder than you might think)


1. I have written two books on people in my Genealogy line. (I probably will never publish them, but they were wonderful to research and write.)  One is set in 1600 America and the other one about my Grandfather Thomas and my youth.)


2. I love eating apples for breakfast, especially caramel apples

3. My favorite bird is a chicken, and my favorite mammals are dogs and cats

4. I used to tie black plastic from the ensilage pits onto my arms and legs, stand in the wind and make believe I was a kite

5. My favorite book in the entire world is Hanta Yo; I have read it 18 times.  I just finished the eighteenth time last month.

6. My favorite colors are Light blue and Lavender, which becomes Periwinkle when I can find it.

7. When I was thirteen my parents moved us to 100 acre fruit orchard

  2. Love your list! What is the pit that you tied your arms & legs to? And genealogy–my Mom (Life in Wakefield) has been researching our family since my daughter was small, and has shared so much with the rest of us in the family! She wrote Tracks of a Bold Doe, a self-published book on Boldo, Alabama and its inhabitants. I might have also added (for your benefit–smile) that my daughter was born in Aurora, Colorado. This is great fun, and very interesting! Thanks for participating!

  4. Wow..back to the 1600’s you are so fortunate to have that information! I also would be interested in reading some parts of it on your blog.
    I am a reader and I have not read Hanta Yo, a book that someone has read eighteen times must be on my book list. I read continually in A Sand County Almanac..so I lost track of how many times I have read it. I have read The Pearl many times but not eighteen for sure:)

  5. Don’t ya just love chickens. They are my favorite also.

    My Aunt & I have been working part-time on our family tree for about 13 years now. I love that moment when you finally find that one elusive person. I agree with the other comments You SHOULD post some of your research.

    I too have written a book. Mine sits in the library of the Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest Foundation’s library. They may have passed it on to Monticello by now (the director planned to anyway). If a dozen people have read it I’d be surprised. The director of the foundation and I were happy with it and that’s all that counts.
