She has been saving her $ and when the traders came to town she bought some of the old kerosene lamps so she could sit in her old rocking chair as she was writing for her first book. I wonder what she wrote in the book probably about the saloon fights. Hopefully we can read the book to let all of you know what it is about!

They finally found a picture of Marsye's dad. He loved a good smoke too.

Marsye's dad's old buddy was so sad about forgetting to put his his best old buddie's name on the cemetery sign that he just took an ole jug of rye out to the Kudzu patch and no one has seen him since, but there are stories of his ghost haunting the South ever since .

Marsye has been writing about the expierence in her book. hummm, I wonder what she wrote, maybe Marsye will tell us.

Now when Marsye went for a ride with Henry they decided to stop by the lake and get some inspiration for her quilts! When Henry started to get fresh even Marsye's saloon days couldn't help her. But because she was such a wonderful and inovated person she had Henry in stiches before he knew it.

Henry Ford bought some of Marsye's old quilts and she wanted to show off her new kitchen. She loves sitting at the table with her kerosene lamp when she is writing for her second book. Lots of rumors in town that she has a crush on Henry Ford.
