Generously given to me by my sister-in-law. She found it to small for her needs and was about to throw it away *gasp*

HM Government Emergency Food Package. I am in the Sheltered group in respect of COVID-19 Coronavirus. Consequently, I was eligible for assistance to stay fully isolated. I am suitable impressed by the kindness shown by these food packages. It is beyond my expectations. I am humbled by the state generosity and feel sorry for those less privileged.

Three generous scoops of ice cream--chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla--topped with gooey hot fudge, chopped peanuts, fresh whipped cream, and a brightly colored cherry is a delectable treat sure to complement any outfit, and it makes a wonderful gift for ice cream lovers or anyone who's counting down to the lazy days of summer.

 

The handmade yellow plate is 3/4" in diameter. The bowl and all food items are also handmade from polymer clay, and the silver plated ring is adjustable for a comfortable fit on a range of sizes.

I'm not cheating, Until I get a worthwhile picture taken today, this is just a stand in.

 

After we had finished our paella on Sunday, the Spaniards at the fiesta gave us some of their desserts including this sandia (water melon) which had been very artfully cut to form a flower shape.

 

It was very kind of them and the melon was delicious. As you can see it doesn't have many pips which saved the usual fiddling to remove them.

It goes back over a square meter of stuff just for my daughter given by numerous people. Very generous folks this year!

Looking for Lincoln

This exhibit was made possible through a generous gift from: The City of Danville

 

Lincoln's Danville Friends

 

The center of town, during the time of Lincoln's years in Danville, was located in a range from Franklin Street in the west, to Washington Street in the east, bordered by Harrison Street in the north and Water Street to the south. The map at left shows the following locations, represented by either a photograph of the friend or the building: (1) Oliver Davis Home, North Vermillion Street; (2) First Presbyterian Church, North Street; (3) Rev. Enoch Kingsbury Home, South Walnut Street; (4) Lincoln Hall, West Main Street; (5) Oscar F. Harmon Home, East Main Street.

 

Not All of Abraham Lincoln's Time Was Spent on Legal Business

When in Danville. He visited his friend Oliver L. Davis in his home on Vermillion Street. They were associated in several court cases. Davis was a floor manager at the Chicago convention when Lincoln was nominated for the Presidency. Lincoln attended Father Enoch Kingsbury's Presbyterian Church on North Street and visited in his home. Here he found a stereopticon quite interesting. He appointed Kingsbury postmaster when elected President. Lincoln whiled away hours in Doctor Woodbury's drug store on Main Street. He lounged on the counter and entertained everyone with his stories. He purchased books at the store, including the "funny book" of the day titled Phoenixiana. Woodbury built a large building in 1857 and named it Lincoln Hall. When he learned the name of the building, Lincoln was a little "embarrassed" and told Woodbury he hoped he had better luck with the building than a friend did with a dog named in his honor. He said, "After the dog's name was changed to Lincoln, he got licked in every fight he was in."

 

Lincoln and Oscar F. Harmon

 

Were involved in a number of court cases together. Lincoln was his mentor when the young lawyer was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives. Lincoln visited in the Harmon home on Main Street and became acquainted with the entire family. Oscar's wife, Elizabeth, recalled an instance when Lincoln requested her daughter to play piano. While she played, the other guests became so noisy that the young girl stopped. Lincoln, standing by the piano, told her, " Go on, my child, don't mind those other fellows, I', listening to you." Oscar F. Harmon was killed during the Civil War at the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain. Lincoln did all he could to assist the family following the Colonel's death. When Lincoln was assassinated, a lock of his hair was given by his family to Elizabeth Harmon.

I say, follow your bliss and don't be afraid,

and doors will open

where you didn't know they were going to be.

If you follow your bliss,

doors will open for you that wouldn't have opened for anyone else.

Great customer and generous family man, this is Mr. B's fourth bicycle purchase from Cycle City.

 

First, he got two bikes for his kids. Then, he got a bike for his wife. Last week, he placed an order for this versatile racer/town/family bike/commuter.

 

He was all smiles when he picked up HIS bike today.
