Mom had to buy Nancy and the Hardy Boys and others because when she took over as librarian, the children's and YA sections were non-existent. I just couldn't get enthused about Nancy and her fresh frocks and her roadster. I was a hardy Boys fan until I made the jump to Erle Stanley Gardner. :-)Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-73426533841883356132013-07-23T00:19:54.952-07:002013-07-23T00:19:54.952-07:00I say the same thing about my husband, Lesley.

I admire your choices for who's to play the part of Lesley in the movies. I wish they could play the part of a man, and then I'd choose them for my biopic. Come to think of it, Streep could probably play me perfectly, because she can do anything! Bravo for applauding Darwin. Keep it up, Lesley.john M.

She grew up in Illinois (like us), lives not far from Dave and me, is writing about CT where I've lived, also lives in FL where I have lived too, and not only that, her husband has written about Rt. 66 and I grew up on that highway - well, not exactly on the road but you know what I mean. lol Next time we go near Oneonta, NY I must go to that bookstore.
