It's so interesting to peruse the past via a book like this with so many thoughts and memories involved and recorded. <br /><br />I lived in CO for a year and we drove to Cripple Creek several times...not for gambling either...just to drive and see where my husbands Grandpa was born. He was born on a ranch there. He passed away over 40 years ago but we wanted to try to find out what, if anything we could. We stopped at the visitor center twice and could never get any info, not even on the original ranch where he was said to have been born. Anyway, it is so beautiful there! <br /><br />I love poetry and found a copy of Drifting (I am planning a post around this). The entire book is written through...the girl who owned was at a lecture on classical music and used the book to take numerous notes. I believe it was around 1920 or so. It was so neat because her last name is my maiden name and I think she may have lived in the town I grew up in as I recognized the address jotted down!<br /><br />Anyway, loved this post!<br /><br />I just posted about Colorado if you'd like to take a look: http://nancysdailydish.blogspot.com/2010/04/pining-for-colorado.html<br /><br />thanks for hosting and for sharing,<br /><br />NancyNancy's Daily Dishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10644639469128423132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-72780852711957293042010-04-08T12:35:47.491-05:002010-04-08T12:35:47.491-05:00Fantastic treasure.

I am so happy to hear that you are taking the time to do the research to learn more and then possibly pass these treasures onto the family. <br />Last summer I bought a room of books at an auction which contained a large scrapbook of the family's history with old newspaper clippings and such. My friend was the auctioneer so I was able to give it to him to return to the family. <br />Thanks for sharing!<br />Blessings,<br />CindyOld Time Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964393517651645084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-51891154125381705502010-04-08T07:28:28.712-05:002010-04-08T07:28:28.712-05:00Wow...this is so awesome.
