Thank you Face Book and Squidoo

Momtothezoo and Ohme
There are millions of stories out there about renewed friendships due to Face Book and this is mine.
I received a note from my Pendleton Old Photos lens from someone named Jeanie Hunt. She said that she had seen the post on Face Book and that she grew up in Pendleton. After several emails back and forth, I discovered that she was Jeanie Sims and that her family had purchased our home in Pendleton when we moved in 1963. I remembered her but did not know her very well as she was younger than me. We enjoyed emailing back and forth and sharing our Pendleton Memories. That is when I decided to start the Pendleton Memories Series. Jeanie’s contribution was the first one with Growing Up in Pendleton SC in the 50’s by Jeanie Sims Hunt.
I discovered that Jeanie is a very talented writer and had even published a book. She mailed me a copy of her book and I talked to her about joining Squidoo. She seemed interested and I talked her through signing up and getting started. She is known as Momtothezoo and now has published 10 wonderful lenses.
Jeanie lives in Florida and recently came back to Pendleton for a Family Reunion. She and her husband met me for lunch on the square at Pendleton Cafe and Coffees and we had such a wonderful visit. I am looking forward to her returning soon!
