I had heard about the two ladies before but didn't know much of the details (I rarely do about anything I write about here). <BR/><BR/>I'd love to get together again - last time was too much fun. I was sore from laughing.<BR/><BR/>And I know you will find a man who has teeth. I am sure of it. Take care. -cbwChesapeake Bay Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187804072769932131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-73462093241080182602008-09-29T16:07:00.000-04:002008-09-29T16:07:00.000-04:00Finding myself strangely obsessed with this case n...Finding myself strangely obsessed with this case now.<BR/><BR/>This is why I no longer watch crime dramas and whodunnits.fooleryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14437690389824744691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-9009839898761913362008-09-29T14:30:00.000-04:002008-09-29T14:30:00.000-04:00I do remember this house !

Two sisters lived there, they depended on others to get them what they needed, they required very little & still seemed happier than most. Your pictures bring back so many child hood memories ! We need another get together (high school friends) and a good glass of wine -at the future singles connection spot ha! ha! Although I smile at the thought, it may be my only HOPE of finding that wonderful man with teeth ! Actually, I would like to hear a repeat of the canoe trip !!Horn Harbor Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08536863561149794476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-24317940645419694792008-09-29T13:04:00.000-04:002008-09-29T13:04:00.000-04:00That young couple stopped at my FIL's gas station ...That young couple stopped at my FIL's gas station to fill up before heading to Mathews that fateful night.
