Blast From The Past II

If you’re a history buff and grew up around where I did, I highly recommend a site, here, called Ye Old Sulphur Spa Historical Society. In a recent FB post they feature a grand old house in town I remember from when I was maybe 4 years old: My dad was inside discussing taxes (I think) with Ross Koons. His wife Alice would later be my 1st grade teacher at York Springs Elementary – almost sixty years ago. A real blast from the past!

A Blast From The Past, Part II: Willis R. Wiley on horseback.

Blast from the past - submersible.

 

For what it’s worth, Grandpa Wiley was a trickster and a joker. I inherited my twisted sense of humor from him. And just in case there was any question on the humor front, here’s a Titanic submersible sub meme he definitely would have appreciated.
