Because of this, she no longer eats meat.Colin Boyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03493906327477069827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-10943059833108843262007-08-28T14:16:00.000-04:002007-08-28T14:16:00.000-04:00James, this is too fun, I just found this page!

They even have a monument there to pay respect to the memories of people who spent their summers there. You're lucky to have childhod memories of such a magical place.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-90345516027070485372007-08-16T12:20:00.000-04:002007-08-16T12:20:00.000-04:00Mr. Gurney, I enjoyed reading your blog.

Both of my parents passed away in a house a mile from the Bruderhof. Did you know that the Bruderhof was the Police Recreation Center run by the NYC PBA? I am a Marine and not a very artsy person but I know what I like. The paintings and sketches of my wilderness womb brought back strong memories of happy summers. I like that. The sketch of Jimmy Morton tells the story of a wonderul man and the people of this region. It is priceless. I like that.<BR/> My wife and I return to the old house in September, after a ten year absence, for a few days of hiking and contemplation. I am sure we will pass the red cabin a few times.<BR/><BR/>Semper Fidelis,<BR/>RJ Easter<BR/>CWO4 USMC RetiredAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-89741526071004652382007-08-08T00:06:00.000-04:002007-08-08T00:06:00.000-04:00Very cool.
