Reminded me of Sedona, Arizona that was named at the wife of the first postmaster. I had thought until I read the history of it that it was named after something Native American but was surprised of how it came to be named. <br /><br />Fascinating history about the town, especially the telephone operator's dedication to her profession and trying to help people be safe. Sorry to hear she perished in the flooding.<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263120411281642209.post-2821793272260964832021-08-14T08:22:26.034-05:002021-08-14T08:22:26.034-05:00That really is interesting.

What the precise spot of a rail road track can change in an area! Folsom was a beauty indeed.<br />Sarah Rooke no doubt is a legend; what a great person she was by not abandoning her duty and warning numerous others of the danger.<br />Another thing is nearby, the Capulin Volcano.<br />Quite a place and you selected a perfectly, highly interesting detour.<br />Hugs and thanks for sharing!<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.com
