<DIV>Thanks for telling us about Margie Boule's Sunday Oregonian column about
the Spalding letter getting to it's proper destination. It's been fun
reading the listers' comments about that family. What a Christmas gift
that letter will be for the family! I don't read the Oregonian very
often, now that I live in Idaho, so I appreciate Bill's updating this mail
list. True genealogists enjoy helping others solve family puzzles, not
just their own.</DIV>

<DIV>Some years ago my husband was attending a business related seminar at the
Portland head office. At that time we lived in the tiny town of
Prairie City, in Grant County, so touring Portland was a treat for me. I
used a self guided walking tour book to see such interesting sites. I
had lunch in a charming little cafe in Old Town, having my first taste of
Stash's Crepe Fair tea, with my croissant sandwich. It seems that cafe
was in a bakery and had wonderful cheese choices. It was if I'd died and
gone to culinary heaven. The dining area was small, and in walked Margie
Boule with other people for lunch. Margie was an Oregon TV journalist
then, so I recognized her. I thought she was so beautiful and
charming. Contrary to my normal impulses, I didn't walk over and ask for
her autograph. It's good to hear she's still involved in journalism - a
lovely lady.</DIV>
