    I am a cemetery walker too. The hand pointing up just means "gone home". If you see a stone that looks like a tree with a broken branch it means they never had children and are a dead end on a family tree. We have a huge stone in our local cemetery that reads "Batman" so we know what happened to him. ;o)

    You can´t go wrong with a trip to a relaxing book sale, and I even found a book for myself: "The right words at the right time" 😅. Two bucks for a common used hardcover might be a little bit steep, but it depends on the title and the condition of the dustjacket. Nice short trip to the cemetery, for me it appears a bit weird to see a graveyard without any fence or wall around. One highlight of this vid was definitely the combination of your stateliner basecap and the junior park ranger jacket, combined with a ponytail. Great outfit today, Renée ! 👌 Greets from GER, U.

    When my children were little I didn’t have much money. I would pack lunches, newsprint paper and charcoal and we would get grave rubbings and talk about who was there and what we could tell about the from their headstones. I was sure to use charcoal because it wouldn’t hurt the headstones.

I can read to much anymore I just can't retain much. But my doctor told me a lot of memory loss, and all is due to depression. So maybe once we get my meds figured out, maybe I will be able to read a good book again. Thanks for taking us to the cemetery and book sale. You looked so cute. I love ya❤️😘💞💞💞💞🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏✌️👶

    Your cemetery stroll was a nice "bonus feature" of the video. I find cemeteries very peaceful. On geology field trips in school, we'd sometime visit cemeteries because different sorts of rock weather differently in different climates. I once went to Warwick, RI to see the headstones of some very distant ancestors (late 18th & early 19th century). The cemetery took forever to find and ended up being in some woods between two roads. The stones were snapped off just above ground level and illegible. The area was not cared for and completely grown over. Sad. Used that "Europe since 1815" book in school too (~5:55) - probably way out of date now. If you haven't looked it up, yet, Patty Hearst is the daughter of William Randolph Hearst. She was kidnapped and threatened / tortured in the early 70s by the Simbionese Liberation Army (far left radicals in the US). She later participated in some bank robberies they committed and served jail time (she was with the SLA for about 2 years). I think she is generally believed to have suffered from Stockholm syndrome but some think she participated without being under duress. I don't know if you read Holocaust materials anymore, but if you haven't read, "KL," about the administration of the work / death camps - it's excellent research. Totally depressing, but excellent. About the same time as KL. a book about the Ravensbruck (women's) camp came out. Also excellent - though describing horrifically awful things. On a brighter note, I have some of my Dad's kids' books from the 40s. They are really terrific. The illustrations are fun and the stories seem less predictable that what we read to our kids. Of course, they didn't always use particularly sensitive language, but it was a different time. I've read that some Dahl is being rewritten currently for that reason, but I don't know the specifics. Sorry for the long post. I love that you always respond to me but I'm sure sometimes it's a chore (responding my book-length posts, I mean) with your growing membership. Thanks for doing that, though I understand if you need to pass it over sometimes. Have a great rest of your weekend! Are you sorting high-value toys with Taco Stacks?

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  Рік тому +4

      I went through a few totes with Taco Stacks and did we find a surprise... I think he will have a video out soon on how he dealt with this "surprise". It was a first for both of us! Per Dahl, I haven't read much about the rewriting of his books, though I know that when the new Witches movie came out, there were certain issues concerning the witches features. I just remember reading Dahl when I was younger and being able to be completely immersed in the book. Matilda, Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, all books that allowed for my young imagination to travel to different places and be "friends" with such characters as Matilda and James.

    Renee, you are like me, I too like to show love and respect to the old headstones. The cemetery my father is buried in has dozens of 1700 and early 1800 headstones in so disrepair. I inquired if I could straighten the tipped over stones and repair the broken stones but our township said NO, they were not to be touched. I feel so bad that they obviously do not have visitors and therefore no one to look up for them or to respect them. I should have just DONE IT without asking first.

I collect old medical books at least pre WW2 and others - I would definitely have picked up 'Flushed" - the plumbers saved us from typhoid and other nasty water borne diseases, (after Dr John Snow linked those diseases to a water supply in London) a good read! My 'grail' book, and I am highly unlikely to ever find one, living in Australia, is a first edition of Audubon's Birds of America, even one volume would be good. I certainly can't afford to buy them.

    This will be no real shock to you I'm sure but I LOVE books and gave a zillion, or so my husband says! This looked like a fun sale that I would have like very much! Your tour of the cemetery before hand was interesting too! I watch a channel called Faces of the Forgotten and it is very interesting! He visits cemeteries all over the country and graves of people who had been all but forgotten. He give s some of their hystory, it it very good. I do like Paper and Moose the best though! I'll bet Taco Stacks didn't go to this sale did he? He might have surprised me though! 😄 Please be careful and stay safe! ❤❤

    I would be in serious trouble at that sale! I love buying old books and games. I only manage to list a few though, mostly I collect. For books I like pre 1950s though, not new ones. The oldest one I have is from 1783 but its too hard to read. It is about Handel's performance somewhere I think.

    Hello Renee. You look so cute in your hat and I love the jacket. You should wear ball caps more often, in the summer it will help keep the sun out of your eyes and with wind it will help keep your hair from falling in your eyes and face. I’m a very big fan of cemeteries I love walking around and reading the head stones. I fined myself in my head making up stories of people and there lives places they lived . It’s relaxing and it de stresses me so much. I love book sales there great and I love the smell of old books. I don’t know what it is but a good book and a cup of tea and I’m content for hours. This was a really great video, there all great , . You were relaxed and had fun with it . I’m glad you enjoyed yourself. Take care. 🕵🏼‍♀️🕵🏼‍♀️🕵🏼‍♀️🕵🏼‍♀️🕵🏼‍♀️🕵🏼‍♀️☕️🫖☕️🫖☕️🫖🥰🥰💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

    If you ever get to Boston Ma, travel a few miles north of Boston, or take the orange line to Malden. Find Medford Street. There is a cemetery there (Bell Rock Cemetary) with headstones dating back to the 1660’s and up. They’re amazing. ❤

    I collect funeral and dead stuff, years ago I got this old tombstone from the 1840s at an auction, had beautiful carved rose on the top
    I get it home and look at it and has the date of death being before the birth date !
    We all make mistakes I guess, just hope they don’t stick around for 170 years
    Guess I sort collect foot stones , have a matched set of antique Victorian “ We Still Love our Children “ ones.
    When my Dog TonTon Macoute died I carved a Marble Tombstone for her that says “ Sleeps here but lives in my Heart”
    When I got divorced I dug her up and took her with me to my new house.
    X wife took me to court over it but was found in my favor…Yes I had a custody battle over a dead dog
    I put her bones in a Victorian baby coffin in my bedroom with the headstone leaning up against it.

    When my mother goes to the veterans cemetery here, I'm always drawn to this one headstone. So, one day I figured I'd just start talking with them. It's a woman, but I always get a friendly sense about her

    I had a book on the meanings of pictures on headstones. But i have to find it here. I stop every now and then to view older stones. That guy born in 1796 had a long life for that time period. I have come across a few people that died in the 1860s and had served in the Civil War. Interesting times

    When we went back after covid almost all of the San Antonio Pulic Library Friends groups increased their prices. Hardbound $2 and paperback $1. That seems to be the going price now. $1 and fifty cent prices hadn't changed in fifteen years so I guess it's about time.

    My local library has a big book sale every fall. It lasts two days, but Friends of the Library get in a day earlier. I imagine quite a few book resellers join just to get into the book sale early. The local Lion's Club also has a big annual flea market, down the street from the library and for the last few years, they've scheduled them for the same weekend. If you're looking for a new venue for one of your videos, you should consider making a trip down to South Jersey for a day this September.

Don't work very well and my legs don't work at all so it gives me something to do but it takes a very long time not like it used to be and I'm always interested in seeing what other people do when they junk. journal
