    As you remember Marsye became the sheriff of her small town in Alaska. She has had lots of members of the community upset with her so she is holding her meetings in the country with her fellows. Marsye is standing by the horse! Isn't she pretty!

    The sheriff building was burned down by community members when they found out that instead of having 1 baby she actually had the twins.

    The guy standing by the wagon is the new Dr. in town and his name is Mr. Big Shot. He is having a meeting with the sheriff and others to see if they can build him a building for his office and pharmacy.

    Here is just a quick peek at Maryse's kitchen in her mansion in Alaska. It looks like she knew how to bake while she enjoyed listened to her music and wondering how in the world this contraption with all the wires was going to make it to talk to people.

    Pharmacy building
    The picture shows a vintage Coca Cola sign. It was on this day (May 8, 1886) that Coca Cola was served for the first time. The first one was served up at the Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta. Coca Cola was invented by John Pemberton, a wounded Confederate veteran from the Civil War.

    Marsye has been dreaming of having a Quilt store in the old town. The other 2 buildings she has her spinning wheels in one of them and the other one is for her weaving store.

    Yes Marsye is now learning to weave the old rugs so she can make some $ to go on her trip with Henry Ford. She wants to have the old rag rugs in her kitchen, house, weaving and spinning shops. She also made her curtains for her new weaving store.

    Marsye has sold some rugs and now ready to head west for a short time for relaxation and fun. I wonder where she is going?

    The twins are now getting older do you see them in the photo.

    The Dr. "Mr. Big Shot" went on the trip and got himself a cowboy hat for the trip. He has been drinking and getting lost so he spotted an Indian for a short chat to help with directions.

    Mr. Big shot is riding Marsye's horse and she is not happy!

    Marsye is in the covered wagon working on her quilts as she wants to get more of them done to sell along the way.
