and information about families. I hope that the family is given a link
to check that out as well.</DIV>

<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> </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>
