I believe we're talking about the same person if her maiden name was Hobbs from down on Possum Hollow originally. She would be my mother's sister. I also live north of Denver, Co and you're right. Its not the same. Been here since 1963.<br />Wayne GarrettAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-424239857157717224.post-43004400312140288982008-06-15T16:48:00.000-04:002008-06-15T16:48:00.000-04:00That's my great grandma Virginia Pace's house... I...That's my great grandma Virginia Pace's house... I used to play in the creek about every June or August when we would go to visit her... I was born in Rose Hill 49 years ago today in a little farmhouse near Ball's Chapel. Mom and Dad moved to the "north coast" of Ohio when I was 9 months old. I have great memories of visiting my grandma and grandpa J.D. Arnett every year- cave exploring, rabbit hunting (with my uncle Al's Red Ryder BB gun), milking cows, trips to the feed mill and stock auctions with grandpa, putting up hay and tobacco... Grandma's apple pies and home cookin' eating at Boone's Trail, really bad haircuts at Howard Dean's in Ewing ("it'll grow out soon!") ... some of the best days of my life were spent around Rose Hill - times I'll cherish forever. Looking at all your beautiful pictures makes me yearn for "the good ol' days when I didn't have a worry in the world... Thanks for the wonderful website and blog- wish I could really go "home" again. Keep up the great work,I truly appreciate it.<BR/><BR/>P.S.- Been living near the Rocky Mountains just outside of Denver Colorado for the last 25 years or so... beautiful here, but still not quite the same.Mick Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597871048430436680noreply@blogger.com
