Zip-Lock Omelets

Cathy, when you read this, if you want more info on Big Bone Lick, it's on page 133 of the hiking book.

Info about Jenny Wiley, and the trail that covers part of her route, is on page 7.
 
Wow- AMAZING, Brook! I thought this story might be "YOU"... funny just how right I turned out to be!

I have loved Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House Books since I was a wee lad. In fact, one of the greatest gifts Arturo ever gave me was a complete first edition set of all 9 original volumes- the earliest dating back to 1953. These are termed First Editions though I have since learned some of the books were published in a "form" back in 1932. I haven't researched much but would like to learn more about this.

Arturo was a book guy like me- and we both are really into first editions. Over the years I can't tell you how much I spent on first edition Nancy Drew mysteries from back as early as the 30's for Art... He loved Carolyn Keene's series and they were his first introduction to American culture when he read many of them as a boy growing up in Argentina.

(Cathy- has Maddy been introduced to the Little House series or the Nancy Drew series yet?)
 
Well, Kevin, that happens to be the time and place we recreate: the trans-Allegheny exploration and settlement period; 1750-1792. So it would be strange if I didn't know a little something about it.

My club, in fact, ran the Battle of Blue Licks re-enactment for many years. The Battle of Blue Licks was the last official battle of the American Revolution, but took place a year after the British surrender.

One interesting sidelight. Most popular historians erroneously credit Becky Boone as being the first white women in Kentucky. They're wrong on two counts. Jemima Boone, Daniel's favorite daughter had accompanied him a year earlier.

But the fact is, Mary Draper was here 20 years earlier than either of them.
