Kathleen you captured perfectly the joy and gift that this type of life can give. As someone who brings historic characters, HHJ and KLB to life I can appreciate anyone who takes the time to learn and experience.Renaissance Womenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09045401344374224512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7799864205176216318.post-44721675492897901442010-10-07T10:57:32.847-07:002010-10-07T10:57:32.847-07:00A "novel" perspective from a prolific, h...A "novel" perspective from a prolific, historical writer.
