Magnolia Historical Society Walk

On June 16, 2012, took the historical society’s walk.  Very interesting, especially the fact that West Pond was used to make ice and the house across the street was the Ice House.  Did you know to keep the ice frozen they used sawdust and unfortunately that is why so many Ice Houses would burn down.  Here are a few pictures…  Please click to see pictures. Thanks Donna

Thank you Thank you

I want to thank you all for your kind words and birthday wishes.  Can not believe how blessed I am to have such wonderful people in my life.  Again thank you and also for the 40 year old, but truthfully add 19 to the 40.
