I bet that Florida farmhouse was georgous when people lived in it. With some elbow grease it probably could be restored.
An area I thought was pretty when I drove to OK last spring is Ft. Smith, AR. It's in a valley between Ouachita mountains and I think the other one is the Boston mountains...
I've done some family history research, found a lot of information about my maternal grandmother's side of the family in rootsweb.com A couple of distant cousins had posted that side of the family's information. I really like rootsweb, it's free. Informative and free is a good combination lol! I...
