Pears are a fav too. Baked with a touch of cinnamon or sliced over fresh greens and juice of a pear used for dressing .

A Bosc Pear for me this morning – ripe and firm. It accompanied the Malt o Meal cereal very well. Second breakfast coming up soon as we wait for the next rainstorm and whether I will be going in for a C-19 shot at the pharmacy.
Reading about a second cousin and his children, 4 & 5 generations removed. There needs to be some editing but I have to think about what knowledge I have to do it. The old guy had quite a life. Inherited mill operations from both his father and father in law, at several hundreds of miles in separation. So, what does he do? Goes off to Illinois to start another mill. IL, NY, MD.
He is noted in Wikipedia as having a village in Illinois named for him. However, the village website says it was named for another person in the family. Q And, who was that and why? Oh, that could be the son he lost in war. No, that was a 24 year old with a different name ... The Military Times has a webpage honoring his service buuutt, it's a picture of his father. What!? No, it's obviously not a guy 24 years old – a guy with white hair and a photo elsewhere online with the father's name ..?
Go back to the village website and search for "history." Only thing that comes up is an ordinance restricting tattoo parlors from serving anyone with a "history" of a communicable disease. ! So, a town of 1,700 has a tattoo parlor? Ha!
. Ah well, maybe I will check the county's history . So much for the morning research.
