The historical society thought the You Tube of Organic Music of Westminster plus the video interview of Pat and Bob Haas should be kept in the archives. If anyone could burn a CD of it that would be great.

Kathy Lisai: Go for it. Tell as many people about this as you would like. The more readers, the more comments and questions. That is a good thing.

Hi Jessie, this blog is a great idea. I don’t know about the Morgan horse, but I think the Community, (otherwise known as the Pondies?) lived in the house Alice once lived in, I bet you will hear from her. I would have to go and look, but I think it’s just south of the vets. I also don’t know about St. J, but I remember the dump just below it. It used to be on fire half the time.
I can remember (faintly) the Red Barn gift shop back when it was just a run down barn.
I can think of a bunch of people who might be interested in posting here, if you want me to pass the url along.

Thank you Dan, thank you Alice. This is fun!
I’m going to use this mostly to post questions, and we’ll figure out together how to get the right people looking at this and responding. Questions I’m thinking about now:
Who was the Morgan stallion who lived at the end of Patch Road in the very early 60s? Owned by Helen Jarvis, and he was pictured on a postcard one used to see frequently. [This topic is now under "Morgans and other horses"]
Which house did The Community live in at Westminster Station, before they moved to Basin Farm?
What was on the St. Johnsbury Trucking site before the terminal was built? And what year did that go in?
Who should we tell about this blog? I’m thinking Barbara Jones, Ruth, Barbara Greenough, Charles Wright, Rachel Duffalo, Rachel Scott–but I don’t know who I’m not thinking of. Ideas?
