Look what arrived in the mail...
This letter from 1948 arrived in our mailbox on July 25, 2008. The letter was sent by a Miss Gertrude Gilmore who was living in our home at that time. Considering our home is the Gilmore House, I suspect she may be the daughter of the family who built our home.
I've scanned the letter enclosed plus transcribed the letter to PDF for easier reading.

Six-Word Memoirs
Recently NPR's Talk of the Nation featured an article on the newly released book, Not Quite What I was Planning: Six-Word Memoirs by Writers Famous and Obscure, by Larry Smith & Rachel Fershleiser. Read excerpts from the book or listen to the show here. Email your 6-word memoir to Xan and I will post them here.
