100 Hikes/Travel Guide: Oregon Coast & Coast Range (Oregon 100 Hikes)
100 Hikes/Travel Guide: Oregon Coast & Coast Range (Oregon 100 Hikes)
Welcome to Oregon’s Coast — 363 miles of cliff-edged capes, public beaches, wild rivers, sand dunes, rainforest, and coastal mountains. Many of the top attractions are within easy reach of Highway 101, but others are accessible only by trail. To help you explore both the civilized and the wild parts of Oregon’s spectacular shore, this book blends two kinds of guides — a detailed Travel Guide for touring by car and a complete Trail Guide for planning adventures on foot.
The book is divided into 18 sections from Washington’s Long Beach south to California’s Redwood National Park. Each section begins with a Travel Guide that includes an overview map and a description of the area’s car-accessible attractions. Both the map and the text are annotated with symbols identifying campgrounds, lighthouses, museums, and other popular destinations. Here too are tips for bicycling, birdwatching, kayaking, canoeing, and horseback riding.
The overview maps show major Highway 101 mileposts, so it’s easy to use the Travel Guide as a highway logbook. As you drive from one area to the next, simply flip forward or backward through the book to the next Travel Guide map.
Following each Travel Guide section are descriptions of that area’s hiking trails. To help you choose a hike, symbols in the upper right-hand corner of each hike’s heading identify trail features. For example, 64 of the hikes have symbols recommending them as best trails for hikers with children, 36 hikes begin near campgrounds, and 44 pass through old-growth forest. Travelers with limited physical abilities need not miss the fun, because a list at the back of the book describes 42 paved, planked, or graveled trails accessible to everyone. Altogether, the guide covers every trail in Oregon’s scenic coastal region.

The Story of My Boston Drawing-Room, Woman's Home Companion, 1910 (p. 2 of 3)

The Story of My Boston Drawing-Room, Woman's Home Companion, 1910 (p. 2 of 3)
Description: Woman’s Home Companion article by Julia Ward Howe and Maud Howe (her daughter) titled "American Drawing Rooms: The Story of My Boston Drawing Room", October, 1910. Page 2 of 3.

Full Text: … remember as a girl at your father’s house in Bond Street, New York?" "They were nearly all Milanese and they were all good people. I remember Forresti, Castiglia and Albinola; he established himself in business in New York and did very well. They must all be forgotten by now.""One never knows. Somebody may remember them,some descendant may read what you say about them, be glad to know that their names are preserved in the amber of your memory. Tell what you remember of your drawing-room in the time of the Civil War; which of the heroes of that time sat at your table?"

"John Brown was at Green Peace, but he came privately and alone, to take counsel with your father. I had been told that he was coming and myself opened the door for him. He was a middle-aged, middle-sized man with hair and beard of amber color streaked with gray. He looked a Puritan of the Puritans, forceful, concentrated and self -contained."

"And Lincoln?" • "He was never to my knowledge in Boston, and certainly never at our house. I only saw him once; that was in Washington. In the autumn of 1861 I went with your father, who was one of the founders of the Sanitary Commission and of the Freed-man’s Bureau, to the Capitol. Our Minister, James Freeman Clarke, and Governor and Mrs. Andrew were of the party. It was an agonizing time, when McClellan’s great army lay encamped, useless, about Washington and no possible issue to the war was in view. The secessionists had determined that Lincoln should never reach Washington alive. John Felton, a younger brother of our friend Cornelius, made a plan by which Lincoln was smuggled into Washington incognito. Nobody knew he was there until he was safe at the White House. Governor Andrew had arranged our meeting. We all went together and were received in one of the drawing-rooms. I remember well the sad expression of Lincoln’s deep blue eyes, the only hand-some thing about his face."

"I have but two memories of the war," said the daughter. "I can see our dinner-table when the news came that Vicksburg had fallen; papa waving the newspaper over his head, Brother Harry jumping onto his chair and waving his napkin. The other memory is of a certain Sunday morning when I went before breakfast with papa to get the mail from the post-office. We were crossing the common between six and seven o’clock, when a pale man staggered up to us with a newspaper in his hand, grasped papa by the arm and cried out:

"’Have you heard? Lincoln is murdered, God help us!’ I remember my father’s reeling as if he had been struck and our sitting down on a bench until he had fully recovered from the shock."

"It must have been during the war that I gave my reception for Edwin Booth, one of many, for he was often at our house. The winter before he had played an engagement at the Boston Theater. Lovely Mary Devlin, to whom he was engaged to be married, was his leading lady. Their acting of Romeo and Juliet bench until he had fully recovered from the shock." "It must have been during the war that I gave my reception for Edwin Booth, one of many, for he was often at our house. The winter before he had played an engagement at the Boston Theater. Lovely Mary Devlin, to whom he was engaged to be married, was his leading lady. Their acting of Romeo and Juliet was an ideal performance. My reception was given after their marriage. The Booths came early; when the other guests began to arrive, I looked in vain for Mr. Booth. Finally we found him in one of the back rooms with you. He had made his handkerchief into a rabbit and was making shadow pictures on the wall to amuse the little girl of the house."

"Yes, I remember, and he wanted to kiss me, and I would not let him."

"I shall never forget," continued the mother, "the funeral of Mary Booth. It was at the chapel at Mt. Vernon, where Thomas Crawford’s statue of Otis stands, one of the finest portrait statues in America. I could not help thinking of the funeral of Ophelia in Hamlet,’ as I looked at the pale, agonized face of the young widower, so lately a bridegroom. When I said this to Louis Agassiz, he said, ‘It probably made him think of it, too.’ As the funeral cortege entered, a young man of great physical beauty followed the coffin. He was dressed in English clothes and had rather a foreign air. I remember the strong contrast between his very blue eyes and his very black hair. He wore alight overcoat and had a strange air of not quite be-longing to the occasion. He proved to be Wilkes Booth, Edwin Booth’s younger brother, afterward the assassin of Lincoln."

"How could you manage to entertain, when you were all so busy?

Ann Marie's "World Of Beauty" On Ugly Commercial Strip

Ann Marie's "World Of Beauty" On Ugly Commercial Strip
The city was named after William Bingham, a wealthy Philadelphian who bought the surrounding land in 1792. Before that, the first known people of European descent to come to the area were the troops of Gen. John Sullivan in 1779, during the American Revolutionary War.

The community was first settled around 1802 and was known as "Chenango Point." Binghamton was first incorporated in 1834 as a village of the Town of Binghamton. Binghamton became a city in 1867.

Abel Bennett, who made a fortune as owner of the Pennsylvania Coal Company, was the city’s first mayor. His farm property on the city’s west side (in an area bordered by Riverside Drive on the south, Beethoven Street on the west, Seminary Avenue on the north, and portions of Chestnut Street and St. John Avenue to the east) is known as the Abel Bennett Tract. On Feb. 19, 2008, this historic district was placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Binghamton was nicknamed the “Parlor City” for its neat streets and attractive homes, including many stately mansions. Strangely enough, many of those stately mansions are now funeral parlors. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, many immigrants moved to the area, finding an abundance of jobs, leading them to call it the “Valley of Opportunity.”

Greater Binghamton is noted as being the birthplace of the Link flight simulator as well as IBM. Until the Cold War ended, the area never experienced an economic downfall, due in part to its defense-heavy industries. The population peaked at around 85,000 in 1950, but the 2000 population is 47,380.

Along with the start of IBM, the original Dick’s Sporting Goods started out as a fishing store in the East Side of the City of Binghamton.
