I haven't been so lucky to be able to travel far and wide as you have, but thanks to the Internet, I have armchair-traveled and am very thankful for it. Between reading online and in print, as well as watching film and television travel programs, I am able to see so much that once would have been impossible. I still dream of travel, but at age 60 now and no expendable funding source in sight, it's sadly unlikely. Those of you who travel don't truly realize how incredibly lucky you are...Trishymousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10448388630980259659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5921174235708632935.post-55332257520072317722018-12-29T11:07:44.117-05:002018-12-29T11:07:44.117-05:00well...for what it's worth.

Fred & Madeleine were my first cousins once removed (children of my grandfather's brother). Ludwig had been involved in restaurants since he was a child in Austria, came to USA in about 1914 (he was 16) after being given the choice of that or jail having shot a waiter at his Uncle's restaurant where he was apprenticing...his 1st jobs in USA were at restaurants in NYC...notably the The Carlyle Hotel where he painted murals that are his only publicly extant work. He did it in exchange for a years free rent. He evidently met Madeleine Freund at the studio of Ervine Metzl.<br /><br />I have this quote about him "Born in Meran, Austria, and bred in Tyrolean hotels, Bemelmans’ world ranged from yachts and limousines to garrets and subways, and was peopled with moppets, jewel thieves, Ecuadorian Generals, and feather boa-clad vamps. He knew everyone worth knowing, & went everywhere worth visiting.

I've just come across your blogspot, I don't know if you still monitor this or what but I thought I would drop you a line. I am in the process of writing a nomination for your dad to get into the Stewartville Hall of Fame. It has been a wrenching experience so far. I miss Glenn too - alot - he gave so much to so many. He influenced people in ways that you can't describe. The way he inspired people, how did he do that? I can't put it into words but he sure did. Trying to gather the information to get this nomination right shows how many people loved him. What a beautiful soul. And what an enormous hole in our hearts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09255845250413594807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5921174235708632935.post-4228788978629608232017-04-09T09:29:41.572-04:002017-04-09T09:29:41.572-04:00This wonderful 'proud' replica of America&...This wonderful 'proud' replica of America's heritage is a crumbling mass if brick as CT's Route 7 has expanded -up against 'American Beauty'. <br />See for your self.PLEASE..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507590167470695038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5921174235708632935.post-7707272964533473952016-07-25T18:02:45.901-04:002016-07-25T18:02:45.901-04:00While going through my husband's grandmother&#...While going through my husband's grandmother's belongings we came across a menu from the White Turkey dated Monday April 22, 1946.

Its a circus ring with the graves in the center.

Seth is a 4th great grand uncle of mine.
