I feel as if it accelerated the speed at that time.<br />In a high school English textbook, I have read the story about Johnny Appleseed. While travelling, he seeded apple. It was a very impressive and great story.<br />Best wishes,<br />keikosnowwhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04224433823476591538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-49200359593302826012011-12-05T08:02:33.007-05:002011-12-05T08:02:33.007-05:00You know that California is my second state, Vagab...You know that California is my second state, Vagabonde! After growing up in Michigan, I spent 12 years in San Diego (where my 2 kids were born) and Pasadena...before moving to Wisconsin (4 years) and then Georgia (25 years). I LOVE your gorgeous images here, farther north from where I used to live.

The view out towards the Santa Catalina Island is breathtaking and the Wayfarer's Chapel is beautiful... like carving out of Redwood trees. I know little about FLW's son's architectural designs. Thanks for sharing with us this wonderful piece of family journaling...

Quand il voyait que Papa préparait la voiture pour partir, il se couchait sur la banquette arrière comme si il avait que l'on ne l'emmène pas.<br />Thanksgivingday c'est un peu comme Noël, cela permet aux familles de réunir, pour se taper la cloche.<br />Je suis à nouveau de la revue cette année, Noël se passe à la maison et la famille s'agrandit. Heureusement que le nouveau venu ne prendra pas beaucoup de place.<br />Ses parents vont déménager de leur petit appart dans la maison qu'ils ont acheté juste avant Noël.<br />A bientôt !claudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595176471297895980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-3775297541214585352011-12-01T05:28:07.608-05:002011-12-01T05:28:07.608-05:00That last photo was well worth waiting for.
