An annual adventure with a high school friend ~ meeting between homes in Michigan & Indiana. Yesterday was opening day for the 100+ year old carousel. The middle horse in the top photo was carved by the original creator‘s son and found in Michigan. My 6 hour round trip drive 😳 was made bearable by listening to the tagged book.

KadaGul Is this Carousel by St. Joseph Michigan? 6mo

Princess-Kingofkings @KadaGul This carousel is in Logansport Indiana. 6mo

MaGoose I love carousels 🎠 but haven't been on one in a very long time. Too long. 6mo
Princess-Kingofkings @MaGoose Me too ~ we rode 6 times! 6mo
MaGoose @Princess-Kingofkings Wow! I used to ride the two carousels in Asbury Park, NJ, about 60 years ago. 😳 One of them had rings that you could reach for as you went around. I never got the gold ring, though. Both of these carousels are long gone. 😢 6mo
Princess-Kingofkings @MaGoose This one has rings to catch. I thought it was hilarious that we had to wear a safety belt but were encouraged to reach out to grab a ring for a chance to win a free ride. 🤔 6mo
MaGoose @Princess-Kingofkings I will have to research the remaining carousels in the country and someday make a trip to see and ride some of them 6mo

What an interesting life - first being married to the famous (or infamous) Charles Lindbergh; second finally finding her own ‘voice‘. And of course the kidnapping of their first born son. HF

Fantastic HF exploring the life of Anne Morrow Lindbergh. She was a fascinating person in her own right, although she was usually overshadowed by her husband.
This was my first Melanie Benjamin novel. I found her writing to be quite excellent. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Book club book for work. Took sometime to get into it and as someone not all that familiar with the Lindbergh‘s it had me researching into their real lives.

This is a very short book (143 Pgs) with lots of wisdom from Charles Lindbergh‘s wife, Anne Morrow Lindbergh. I enjoyed it very much and even though it was written in 1955 the messages are relevant even today. As it was a 2 hour 24 minutes audiobook, I would highly recommended to all!
