I find it really difficult to read those and at the moment I'm reading a series by Tracie Peterson that include the Klu Klux Klan and what they did to negroes way back in the late 1800's. Some things I just have to skim over because it does get me all knotted up and I do feel sickened when I read it.<BR/>I've never used the expression, "running the gauntlet" although I have heard it said. <BR/>Run Hannah! Run!<BR/><BR/>(I watched Braveheart and covered my eyes until it was safe to come out again.)Carolannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11948899343901608273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-48868577343737943002007-03-23T17:07:00.000-06:002007-03-23T17:07:00.000-06:00Nope I've never ran the gauntlet but I did credit ...Nope I've never ran the gauntlet but I did credit you for the photo, thanks again!<I>~Demara</I>Demarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11805384658660191758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-62185043577874142472007-03-23T14:32:00.000-06:002007-03-23T14:32:00.000-06:00Just had to add something about hats. I actually ...Just had to add something about hats. I actually wear a cap every day on my walk/run! It keeps the rain, rain, and rain, out of my face! I have a felt fedora that I purchased in Italy. I love the style but wonder how well it would hold up in the rain?! I also have a lovely little straw, pink number with a pink veil that I purchased for my sister's wedding. I had just had baby number 4 and felt that anything would help detract from that which was below my neck. I love it but have only worn it once. It just collects dust. By the way, what is the best method for cleaning? <BR/>One more question, ... Pirates hats. My middle crazy son, would love a pirate hat (you know, Johnny Depp, ...) I think it would be a fun birthday gift for him in August but have not been able to find one locally. Do you think internet shopping of hats is realistic? (Ray is an internet shopper - tires, wheels, fake grass for the dog run, ... but no hats so far). Anyways, these are questions that have plagued me ever since you were discovered to be a hat pusher/addict. From a webbed toed, rain-soaked, BC'er who would like to venture outdoors in hats other than the baseball cap from Creation Fest NorthWest.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01142983218710555646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-47576925915908172632007-03-23T11:40:00.000-06:002007-03-23T11:40:00.000-06:00ah sorry . . .pardon my ignorance, I just checked ...ah sorry . . .pardon my ignorance, I just checked Mel Gibson's Braveheart and it was 14 century.Lovella ♥https://www.blogger.com/profile/13870567090244361779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-73423219817238670192007-03-23T10:33:00.001-06:002007-03-23T10:33:00.001-06:00I actually hadn't contemplated the fact that we ar...I actually hadn't contemplated the fact that we are a less violent society. Interesting premise! Tolerance, human rights, and the United Nations have made a difference, I suppose. All the cats and dogs are applauding in unison!<BR/>As for Hannah, RUN! I think I would rather die trying to escape than live through disfigurement and torture. What therapy group would she have joined? Ah yes, that is back to the 2007 era journals of Hannah, along with the sun block and stretch mark creams.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01142983218710555646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29053672.post-75547341163656821682007-03-23T10:33:00.000-06:002007-03-23T10:33:00.000-06:00I was reading with one eye closed for fear of what...I was reading with one eye closed for fear of what Hannah experienced. I know of my own family. Things were discussed quietly of what happened to the women who happened to be available when the revolutions started. How horrific. We should never ever complain about our difficulties.<BR/>I am so thankful. <BR/>Poor Hannnah, it is unimaginable what she must have endured. I watched the movie Braveheart with such a sick feeling. I'm wondering if the time frame was similar.Lovella ♥https://www.blogger.com/profile/13870567090244361779noreply@blogger.com
