Hi Everyone: My "it's a good day to stay inside and work on a project" today has been scanning old Kelley family postcards. One black and white card has a photo on the front and says: "19k. Shavings, E.A. Bearse & Co., West Barnstable, Mass." Handwritten on the back is a note that Ethan Bearse was a family friend and lived on Rt. 6A in Barnstable. The photograph is of the home, with a "Shavings" sign out front, to one side is a "Mill and Aircraft Yard" sign (there are wooden bears on the lawn and whirligigs and such on a fence), to the other side is a small Simpson Spring Beverages building, with various other painted on signs for Moxie Cold Tonics, cigars, candy, and ice cream. I love how resourceful our Cape people were! If someone descends from Ethan Bearse, I'd be happy to send a copy by email to you. Chris Chirokas
