Here's a couple of interesting Blogs for you from CSM.. (and PS...the ole' Capitalist here is still working, way past time to hang it up(started his own business when he was 59, which is quite successful now. Course' he did put in about 19 hours a day for a few years to do it)...heck...he's too busy supporting all the younger generation who may need help, and helping others who need help as well...plus saving for our retirement..(I know, what a foreign concept...saving...) plus of course, paying a good deal more of 'his' fair share of taxes....<not sure I'm laughing about that...> One thing further...Will talk to a couple of mine today re our conversation...see what their take on it is...very busy careers and young kids, and all the etcs....I'm not sure if we had to pay such high child care costs, that I would have worked outside the home in those early years...in fact, I quit because of that, we lived in a smaller house, and had one car, an older one at that, for several years. We raised the kids, I was their Mom, then I returned to work, and they all got to college. It worked then. csmonitor.com Liblog -- Including Mourt's Relation: A Journal of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, 1622, Part I -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Caleb Johnson, a member of the General Society of Mayflower Descendants, provides the following comments on this hypertext version: Mourt's Relation was written primarily by Edward Winslow, although William Bradford appears to have written most of the first section. Written between November 1620 and November 1621, it describes in detail what happened from the landing of the Pilgrims at Cape Cod, though their exploring and eventual settling at Plymouth, to their relations with the surrounding Indians, up to the First Thanksgiving and the arrival of the ship Fortune. Mourt's Relation was first published in London in 1622, presumably by George Morton (hence the title, Mourt's Relation). This version of Mourt's Relation is based on a University Microfilm (Ann Arbor, Michigan) facimilie edition of the original 1622 edition, to which I have updated the spelling to modern American-English standards. Then I adapted the general paragraphing scheme from the 1969 Dwight Heath version, which is clearly more appropriate for web page presentation. Our thanks to Mr. Johnson for presenting this hypertext version of Mourt's Relation.
