Oh Mary, Mary, I love the tidbits of your herstory…much better than the average Southerner I’ve encountered in my time in FloTown.
Merryness to your family and may all your quilts be bright!

In reply to Andy. Oh, too funny! I think you'll like Jose's cover of the Doors song...Light my Fire was THE song during my Freshman year in High School...we had a jukebox in the lunchroom and that was on constant play selection - and it was the LONG version of course!!!!

I don’t remember where I was but I remember seeing Jose Feliciano on all the major variety shows back then. Such a talented man, and he seemed really nice too 🙂 Merry Christmas, Laura!

That was a fun blast from the past! I was living in an apartment in a late 19th century house one block from the Texas Capitol in Austin when I first heard that song on a borrowed radio! Happy holidays to you, Laura!

In reply to laura bruno lilly. I will look that up as I’m a huge Doors fan, but-would you believe it, this song that I’d never heard before has just come up on a Christmas Spotify playlist I had on.

May you have many hours of ‘puzzling’ during your holiday vacay!

I can’t recall the first time I heard to song, but growing up, it was always a favorite in our house. Wishing you and your family a peaceful Christmas, Laura.

Like I said to Laura – the radio really is a cultural icon! Especially when blasted while driving your own car!
Have a great holiday!

In reply to Laura.

Yep, the radio – communication for the masses at the flick of a switch! I miss the sense of community it engendered back in the day. Our music ‘distribution’ is so fragmented these days. Guess I’m just an old dinosaur!
HA!
Merry Christmas to you too Laura, with wishes for plenty of restorative R & R over the holidays.
