The back story

Cedar reminded me that I forgot to tell the back story of how I happened to be invited into someone else's house. Well......all my life my Mother kept this framed newspaper article hanging on the wall of where ever we lived, it was all about this house, her father's, where she lived as a child. As time past I ended up with it in my possession and I strongly felt that it belonged to whoever was living in the house now. When I found out this information through Google, I called the occupant! I got the answering machine and left a concise message and Jan called me back. She was delighted! We must of talked for an hour. That was about a year ago. Anyway, after I told her my RVing story and that I would probably visit Indiana some day, she said to look her up and she would give me a tour. And a year later I did! Her and her husband have information on the house dating back to when the land was purchased from the Indians! I am so happy to have returned that piece of history to it's rightful place.
