Now I see a million dust bunnies and more that I just didn't have time to look at these past few months. Time for spring cleaning. I wish they had been able to maintain that great estate of Bowlers. You and your son are right.

Have you done that in one of your stories? I love to visit Guthrie, OK. It's a small town in Central OK that was birthed as a result of the first OK land run. It has more buildings on the historical registry than any other town west of the Mississippi and really appeals to the historical writer in me.Vickie McDonoughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09698966142886006577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-70482985259831577922014-05-30T00:00:03.653-04:002014-05-30T00:00:03.653-04:00Hi Jillian, so glad I stopped in and got to see th...Hi Jillian, so glad I stopped in and got to see this little snippet of history in Cincinnati. I was sad to see not much left of it and reminds me of other places that that disappeared because no more TLC. My son and I were talking the other day how the place you live would go back to a forest if it were not kept cut and home would deteriorate if no upkeep was done. we toil or we lose it. thanks for your post today.<br />Paula O polhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16382710562280127463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-5640679407473332532014-05-29T21:17:44.908-04:002014-05-29T21:17:44.908-04:00Hi Maude,

It is real tall and faces an oblong made-made reflection pond. We also have the Battleship Texas parked in the water near there. We used to be able to tour it. But, someone told me you couldn't tour it anymore.

Maybe this post was my unconscious need to enjoy the spring after this harsh winter. No wonder I didn't post it in February. It was too cold. :) Jillian Kenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12565274151603868808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-87266994160318599912014-05-29T12:16:51.035-04:002014-05-29T12:16:51.035-04:00I love visiting places like this, although I'd...I love visiting places like this, although I'd never heard of The Temple of Love. Thank you for sharing. I live in the desert, but love places with green grass and abundant flowers. However, those winters... I also love Robert Frost poems.
