"Get me me pipe!"

Yes, those were the famous words that forever enshrined Grandma Margaret into the family history book. (She was Irish, hence the excessive use of "me".)


She was one of many pioneers of Kansas, and one of the very first settlers of Abilene. At one time, her picture hung in a museum there; we went to see it once, but they'd taken it down. (Go figure.)

And so, in honor of Great-Great-Great-Great-Grandmother Margaret, I shall temporarily change my current profile picture from the statue of a minuteman to a photo of Grandma Margie.

Enjoy!
