Really nice.

Thursday morning travel takes me right by the Mudd house and through the Zekiah.

You obviously know the area too.

I bet half the people in this area haven't a clue to the history in their own back yards.

Thanks much Sammy. Not only does it mess with our concept of time but something else is afoot here. We fought with your country on several occasions, with Spain, with Japan, with Germany and most Americans are much less emotional about our feelings towards those countries than we are about Yankees and Rebels! It has something to do with having to shoot at your neighbors and even your brothers I think. But yes, it seems like it must have been more than 50 years between our Civil War and WW1 doesn't it.

Thanks for that bit of history Nancy! It's something most books have overlooked.
