GardenGirl ... great to see you today.
I know that you have been busy, but we've missed you.
I hope you had a great Tuesday!
I adore rocks, and I’m not talking about diamonds! Course, living on the sandy coast of NC, where the only “rocks” are beds of oysters.... LOL
About the Mayflower... Have any of y’all ever seen Columbus’ ships? There’s a replica of The Nina that comes into Beaufort—that’s Bo-fort, not BU-fort!—that thing is unbelievable tiny! There is no way I would go out of Beaufort harbor on that thing, much less across teh Atlantic! And the thought of staying below decks the whole way... Sheesh! Our ancestors were TOUGH!
Hmmmm - ever gotten a pearl from them? :)

I have always said I never would have made it 'way back when'. I would HATE to have lived anytime before the 20th century.
