    Growing up fly fishing for Rainbow Trout, my dear Grandmother sent me to meet the men in my family with a picnic basket. Nothing fancy, just sandwiches and a light side and sweet. Instead of those, “Oh no looks”. I was welcomed by my uncles because I carried a hamper full of goodies! My sweet 5’0” grandmother, knew how to keep her boys in line. 😅 the only girl on my grandfather’s side in generations, I was a novelty and a curse!

      Fyi her gynocentric approach is all wrong , its history not a female gender studies class .

    @gerardolsen9823 8 місяців тому

    I love the simple shape of the main house. That is what I would like. Then of course a fire stove in each room including the kitchen. I come from the pioneers of America so we want a certainty of harm in the cold days by way of chopping wood or using cobs from corn at harvest time. We also have learned to roll the newspapers we read into log shapes and burn those like a log of wood. The secret is using a bit of water to moisten the paper as you roll it and not to roll too tight and not too loose. These paper logs are wonderful. Also, all dead trees or trees that fall are valuable. Usually, we process them by chopping, cutting, and shaping then placing them under a roof for storage. Farm cats love to live in those places and keep all rodents down. We also raise poultry of all kinds and sometimes a pig or cow. This was done later when the family left the farms and became worksmen and women. The animals were for eating, but we did care for them along the way. Never pets, but taking good care of them. We value cats and dogs to keep the place and a good family of geese and guinea hens will help alert of someone on the land. They are territorial and make a noise or rouw when someone is on the land. My father was meant to inherit the farmlands from his family and take care of his parents as they aged and died. He and his mother did not get along well so he left. He said, "I had to cut the apron strings." By the way, my parents grew up not speaking English at home. All English was learned in their one-room schoolhouses. Mother learned to teach and then took care of the large family of kids. She worked at the Post Office and then helped the handicapped for the rest of her working days. Dad only went to school to 8th grade, went to the Korean War, and then taught himself how to carpentry, plumbing, painting, mechanics, and growing fine and large kitchen gardens for canning and fresh eating. We children went to work on the farms that were close to the tiny village we lived in. Then I took a job working at the gas station CO-OP while in high school. My college days were spent learning two different majors and working part-time in as many places as possible. Returning to the farm fields for farmers in the summers. Never married or having children, I learned the art of teaching in the classroom then worked in Omaha for the large company, Oriental Trading Company, two different large apartment complexes as a painter, and then at the Boy's Town East Hospital cleaning all operating rooms, recovery rooms, patient rooms, halls, restrooms, secretary stations and nurse stations as well as going down to the little childrens' living quarters to clean bathrooms and kitchen as well as the play areas. Since I began working in 4th grade at 9/10 years old, I paid into social security all those years and was able to retire very early. Well, earlier than most people by at least 10-15 years. Many of my friends did not have their first jobs until leaving college. I grew up in the area just outside of the Cezch community. Was very valued by the farmers as we Cezchs are dependable hard workers. As a matter of fact, the Palik family is noted for being hard workers whereas my mother's side was noted for more of the arts and crafts but also farming. Very religious on both sides of the family. Now I have moved and retired to a town at the center of my family's original lands as homesteaders. We are very well known in this area from both sides of the family. I can hardly move without people noticing what I am doing. And my families were noted for being or setting the "tone" of good behavior. My parents were noted for helping the elderly to church on Sundays and Holidays. Usually, it was the elderly women who had lost their husbands to old age. My father always made sure those elderly women had fresh garden vegetables and fruits and made sure they had warm houses to live in. The women in my family are noted for sewing, mending, constructing clothes, canning, and cooking as well as singing. The men are noted for their hard work growing huge kitchen gardens and raising animals. We were at one time great trappers and hunters and fishermen. Nowadays we don't do that anymore. I have taught religion classes to children from all denominations keeping the Bible as our source and not a denomination. I picked up the children from parents who no longer went to church. I was very surprised at how little they knew of the great stories of the Bible. So, as a result, I am called the "Church Guy" in this town. Whatever. I do keep to myself and do not participate in many social activities although I am always asked to serve on committees. My family has always tried very hard to stay out of gossip and the prevalence of drinking and those "footsteps in the night." (sleeping around) We have helped to set the standards in this area ever since our homesteading days up to the present. Many fall into the ways of the world. We have not, yet. Now this new generation of children in our family is learning, but I think they have it much more difficult as peer pressure is very stressful and they want to "run around" and have fun. We have always had drinks for social events or holidays, but not to be drinking otherwise. We know how to make our own beer and wines. Many people would come to my mother and father for advice on matters, especially with solving a problem. Mother's side of the family were mostly women and sang with harmony or parts taught to them by their mothers. The boys were taught the rugged things and work. We were noted for smoking a pipe or cigar, but not my generation anymore. The women never smoked or drank. The men would always try to get them to have at least one. I remember the laughter over that subject. Music and dancing were very important to the people in this area. In my family parents had their differences like all others but chose to argue away from the children and they never, never carried the differences into their bedrooms. That was like the "safe base" in the house. Our children are having children. So I am in the generation of grandparents and slowly becoming great grandparents although I am only 60 years old. I am the Great Uncle in the family being single all my life. Oh, I forgot. We are also noted for always having a good supply of Holiday foods, candies, chocolates, fruits, and nuts. My father grew large areas of popcorn and because he saved seed from year to year, he developed a type of corn that popped very large and had a unique almost vanilla or nutty flavor. I remember many nights we just wanted Mother to have popcorn for supper. That was all. She thought it was silly, but agreed and that was like a tradition in our family. Julie, my big sister actually works for a popcorn store and makes many different flavored popcorns. She sells out almost every evening. My grandmother on my father's side was a baker for the community and my grandmother on my mother's side did the re-painting of the insides of the churches and their special statues. My aunt cooked for a large and well-liked cafe and my other aunt specialized in making drapes, fancy ones. My great uncle Lewy was the shoe cobbler/maker in this area and was busy all the time. My grandfather and I are Knighted for the Church although my Grandfather passed away for many years now. I also belong to the community of monks on the hill just north of town. I live within the community not at the priory. I am considered a hermit. I know that sounds strange, but it is true. A modern-day hermit belonging to the monks of Christ The King Priory. >The Morning Room in the video, her wallpaper can be maintained and restored with a "good eye" for colors. As we restore historical paintings, that is how her paper and other paintings in the room would be maintained and re-sored. I did a bit of re-storing in my place and had to match colors. I was successful. My first attempt gave me too much peach in the off-white. So I stopped, really didn't even begin. SAved the paint and went to re-match once more and was "spot-on!" People wonder how I can keep t the old paint so clean. Well, I don't tell them that I touch-up with restoration techniques and matched paint color. One must not wash the walls other than in the bathroom and kitchen as the paint does not lend itself to being washed. One uses an extremely soft bristle brush to dust walls and then restore them with matched paint using the restoration techniques used on fine paintings. I do suggest she work on finding a good rug made in India for her floor in the Sun Room. A good rug is not easy to find. India is the only place other than Persia that still uses the old techniques. I still think there has to be a way to restore color to old rugs in good shape as well as tapestries. It is a matter of using fine dye washes with a paintbrush and perhaps a toothbrush to work the dye down into the fibers allowing for drying time between areas of color. I would want the rug or tapestry stretched on a wall or perhaps a floor. The subtle stretching would aid in the dye washes to penetrate better into the fibers. Myself, I would do all the color that is the same on the entire piece moving to the next color after drying time is given for each color. I would study what the dyes were made from at the time and try to duplicate to keep with the time it was done rather than modern dyes, if possible. I really encourage you to make one room in your estate your studio. Make sure the lighting is as natural as possible staying away from fluorescent lighting. It disrupts matching colors and "true" colors. Window lighting with light drapes is the best lighting other than working outside in a closed tent that has a tarp flooring.

    The greatness of American is that there are no inherited titles and each person has an equal chance of success [theoretically, at least].

    This is such a wonderful series with Julie! I find her accent so interesting too, like the way she pronounces the words “all” and “beautiful” sound almost like a muddled English accent. Lol!

    I noticed they didn’t use the word dissolution of the monastery . So the land would have been taken over not from free will but probably throwing out the inhabitants .

    I love the show and learning of the history. She's very excited about her adventures! I can absolutely understand why though, on more than one occasion I felt as though she might be a bit too eager and maybe interrupted the stories too often. 🤷‍♀️
