We have been to Pittsburgh a few times for their big outdoor (camping?) show. Hubby worked there. Watched the dancing policeman direct traffic. And went the wrong way up the tunnel. A nice policeman said it happens a lot with people who don't live there.

I am in NE Oklahoma and it looks like we are in for the worst of the worst. The weather people have just issued a blizzard warning. I am ready. I just finished cutting firewood, made sure I have fuel for the generator. The firewood is stacked in the house, the generator and fuel are on the porch under cover, I have kerosene for the kerosene heater. Plenty of dog and people food. filled the tub with water for the toilet. Checked the propane, batteries, and fuel for the oil lamps. Things have been different since my husband passed away but I have learned to survive on my own. I was really proud of myself when I learned to use the chainsaw. I cut the wood in to smaller logs to make it easier to handle. We seldom get more than a few inches' so 10 to 15 inches will bring us to a complete standstill. I work part-time as a cashier at a Supercenter Walmart. Yesterday at Walmart was crazy. It felt more like Christmas than a Sunday, I'm off for the next few days. I plan to just burrow in and stay put. My phone, computer, and other means of communication are all ready. So bring it on Mother Nature, I'm ready.

Memory laners this is a great site if you are into genealogy and have Missouri people, It is free and both prints or downloads, many things can be found thru a death record and like all things must be verified. One might think the name they want is the only one but I can testify to the fact even odd names are frequently repeated. Bud. From: Archives Volunteer [mailto:archvol@sos.mo.gov] Sent: Monday, January 31, 2011 11:19 AM To: undisclosed-recipients: Subject: 1960 Death Certificates Hello All, As of 1PM Saturday, the 319 registered Missouri State Archives volunteers finished transcribing the nearly 49,000 Missouri death certificates filed in 1960. This means the project was completed in just over 3 days, blowing our old record of 3 weeks right out of the water!!! Thank you all so much for your hard work. The next few days will be spent going over those certificates flagged for admin review. Once this process is complete the images and transcriptions will be uploaded to the death certificate database. Look for them to be online sometime in the next 2-3 weeks. During the project we ran into a few issues that need to be addressed. These primarily concern volunteers' choice of operating system and web browser, but we found several corrections that need to be made to the dropdown menus as well. Know that all reported problems have been passed on to our IT division, so next time the process should run much smoother. Now that we've successfully completed our first project using the new web application, we plan to utilize it more and more. In the coming months we anticipate using it to index our World War I and World War II Missouri National Guard service cards, as well as re-indexing those death certificates filed in 1912. As we get closer to starting on these projects, I will be in touch with additional information. Again, many thanks for your hard work. The staff of the Missouri State Archives, as well as genealogists across the country, are extremely grateful. Regards, Brian Rogers Research Analyst Missouri State Archives 600 W.

Well it looks as if all my friends in New England are going to have more bad weather.  I do hope it will not be as bad as the news predicts.  Annette.

Well i think the whole United States is mixed up this winter. So far we have gotten ca 55 inches of now which we get every year and expect it. But few days past people were going out in the dark and were slipping and falling in the frozen RAIN!! Yes rain now if it was mid Feb. i would say fine because we been known to get rain. But not in Jan. as its usually our coldest month. Viola.

A lot of tourists and visitors have ended up this way this year. However I will take our Florida weather over what most of the country is in for in the nest few days.  My old stomping ground of Massachusetts and Maine are in for more bad weather and snow and ice.  Annette. ________________________________ From: Frances Tyler <francesty@comcast.net> To: memory-lane@rootsweb.com Sent: Fri, January 28, 2011 4:36:48 PM Subject: Re: [ML] This year started with a bang.

I started school in 1940 at the age of five. We lived in Little Rock, AR. The school system did not own any busses. We did not own a car so we walked to and from school in all kinds of weather. I don't remember how far we had to walk but it was at least one mile and maybe closer to two miles. The shortest route took us straight up the hill from our house. The road was not paved at that time and was just dirt and rocks. We called it "rocky road". There was a sidewalk on one side of the street and we used that except in the winter when we had ice storms. Because of the street trees on that side of the road, when they were heavy with ice it was not safe to walk on the sidewalk. Branches would break off the trees under the weight of the ice. We walked up the middle of the road in order not to be under any branches that might break off. Of course, the road was slick from the ice and we had to be careful where we stepped to avoid slipping on the ice. Getting to and from school was a real adventure in winter. There were only a couple of times that we did not have to walk home. Both times we had a real monsoon type of rain...hard and heavy. My mother worked at the grocery store across the street from our house and she got the owner, who did own a car, to pick us up at school and bring us home. I know he did not like doing that and probably took fifty cents from her pay for the gas and inconvenience. He wasn't the best boss in the world but it was a job which brought money into the otherwise "poor house".

Walking to school? During most of grade school I only had to walk 3/4 of a mile, but one year by road, it was 3 1/2 miles. My brother and I cut across a field and walked 2 1/2 miles. There were no school buses at that time. .When I started high school, our father bought a model T Ford which my brother, a senior drove to school. After that, I rode with neighbor students. That was in Idaho.

You just reminded me of sending my daughter off to school. I bought her a red plastic raincoat and a red rainhat and I'm not sure about the boots but she probably had those too. We lived in town and she had to walk about a mile to school. I had the two little boys at home so I didn't walk her to school. "She had to cross a busy street so I told her to walk up several blocks to cross at the signal. I learned long afterward that she crossed at our street because her girlfriend was already on the other side of the street and she wanted to walk with her. That was when she was in the first grade. Now, you wouldn't think of sending a 6 yr old off like that by herself. My younger son walked alongside a busy road, no sidewalk, to Kindergarden about 5 blocks. Now, I look at that stretch of road and wonder where my brains were. And, this was a 5 yr old walking by himself. This was on the outskirts of Portland OR. But, you do what you have to do at the time and pray they stay safe. No mother would even consider doing that now.Emma > To: memory-lane@rootsweb.com > Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2011 00:00:05 -0600 > From: askgranny@juno.com > Subject: Re: [ML] Walking to school > > One time it came a really big snow, and Daddy walked ahead of us dragging > the chopping axe up the fence row to make a trail for little feet to > follow.

1. We just started getting charged 1.10 to fill each pill bottle per time it is filled. This started 1/1/11. But know there is one crazy woman in my drug store and i know she treats every body mean like!!!!! One week my doc upped my Dilantin and the next month came and she said i needed to contact my doc to get a new refill. She never see's me but she make's it just as hard on me as she can. Day before yesterday she called me at my home to tell me my 10 mg. pottassium pill had been changed to two per day meaning 20mg's per day. But i take a pill to try and calm my bladder down from spasm's??? Well Pottassium pills and bloadder pills attact each other and my belly gets the brunt of it all. Pain after pain after pain constantly!! So i questioned her about these two pills so she told me that if you put a 10 mg pill in water it is less powerful. So i said yes but i am supposed to take the pill's 12 hours apart and she said yes but if you put them in water they are not so strong!! Do you think i believed her? Wpuld you believe her?? I called my doc and he will call me back. Plus i called my RN and she thanked me for being smart enough not to fall for that BULL CRAP!!! A few weeks ago i saw a piece in the news paper about people calling the elderly with all kinds of scams of today so i am very carefull!! 2. Viola. >

I can remember we always had to walk to school when we lived in the country. Some places not to far to walk but two places it was a little over a mile. But our only form of transportation was walking so it never bothered us. But one place we lived we only had to walk maybe three quarters of a mile. But we got early snow so no snow shoe's and we did not get them till dad's va check came ca 5 to 8 days later. But dad always made sure we did not get cold he wrapped our feet in gunny sacks. Some laughed at us while others thought it was pretty good thinking. So no matter the era people laughed and others found good out of it because i used to get hurt so easy and as i got bigger i got meaner. Viola.

I hear you, Helen!
