  1. I'm this case, glad Broadway is temporarily closed. Sorry that Anold Stang and Steve Allen didn't have a better idea for a musical
  2. At the Cardinals opening day St Louis former manager Whitey Herzog remembered catching President Eisenhower:s opening day ball pitches on opening day in Washington. I always liked Herzog
  3. A friend and bought a car in Amsterdam and spent too much tine driving through Europe. Mary great experiences except in Spain. We sold the car in Paris!
  4. Aren't there nice hotels in the middle of the Seine. In Paris. I stayed in one of those hotels right after 9/11. Not sure if the hotel is still open
  5. I remember when there were no charter school. Even better no advance placement courses.
  6. I like most of airports in Germany especially Munich and Dusseldorf. Also the airport in Stockholm and the airport in Sarajevo..
  7. Well, one could go to the opera in St. Petersburg, or a symphony.. Or enjoy the various negborhoods, visit Novbokov's home and enjoy his amazing butterfly collection. I was a bit happy to fly next to Munich where many people do speak English and food and beer are truly wonderful. When to return to St Petersburg, I would be sure to stay in the neighborhood close to the Neva River and the amazing Russian Art Museum.
  8. I have visited Paris many times and completely disagree. In the days after 9/11 it was almost impossible to get a flight to the States. Fine with me..
  9. My mother was the youngest of eight children. I have great memories of all of her siblings and their spouses. Her brother (two years older) and his wife couldn't have kids I miss them almost as much as my parents. Very much regret not telling that Aunt and Uncle. What was I thinking?
  10. Again I received a visa through a tour company in 2005 even though I was going on my own. Do not try for a visa without doing extension research
  11. Mrs. Roosevelt's doctors were tragically divided in 1962 as to whether or not she had a fatal blood disease. Sad Most likely Eleanor Roosevelt died from TB As @marylander1940 too often says, "back to subject"
  12. I flew to St. Petersburg in 2005 and stayed for a week during the White Nights in June Back then I was able to obtain a visa through a tour company even though I was not going on a tour. Not sure if still possible. There is no reason why one can not buy a plane ticket with a visa and just go. Moscow and St. Petersburg might be too little for only 10 days
  13. Very sorry, @Unicorn
  14. Don't forget this site in your will, @marylander1940. You have greatly benefited from Daddy's
  15. Why not spend ten days in St. Petersburg, rather than just two and really get to know the city. Stockholm is worth 10 days as well. With 10 days in Stockholm you get to know the neighborhoods and some of the residents
  16. My dad installed a telephone in Davis' house in New Hampshire. She was the definition of New England.
  17. My parents had many siblings, but with two exceptions they were older than my parents. I could talk to one of my aunts. But she was born in the same Massachusetts city as Bette Davis - and almost on the same day and year. Lowell, Massachusetts
  18. Lucy was so upset she agreed to star in a Broadway musical - "Wildcat.". She even sang "Hey, Look Me Over!" Live on The Ed Sullivan Show. Amazing
  19. I greatly miss the gear. shift on the floor. In a Jeep and VW
  20. I completely agree about Victoria Vancouver Island. On Brazil, on my first trip there in 1974, I saw and heard the great Baden Powell perform in a small club. Guitar and single
  21. Luckily the great Willie Mays is still with us and living in Rancho Mirage California
