A Visit from Kent Hoffman

Yesterday, Kent wrote a note at the picture of the Haigler Jail on Panoramio.com and I told him about our Haigler Blog. He left the following note in our guestbook, in case you missed it.

Thanks to a contact on Google Earth I was told this afternoon about your Haigler Blog. It is a great piece of work!
While I never really lived there, I was there many summers in the 40's and 50's staying with my aunt, Dorothy McKay, and her husband, Hugh, as well as my aunt - Blanche Rowett. I became acquainted with a number of residents there but really know no one there these days.

Which reminds me that I may not have told you about Panoramio, a wonderful place on the internet to take "tours" of an area without leaving your house!! If you have photographs of your favorite place "it" lets you upload them and share them with the world and "map" them on Google Earth.

You will want to look for Dan Keller's pictures of things around Cheyenne County, Kansas and I have a few there, as well.

Enjoy your "Computer Vacation"!!

    Kent,
    I remember you very well. My mother Gladys Freehling was a dear friend to your Aunt Dorothy. Dad and mother looked after Dorothy's house in the winter when Dorothy went back to Ohio in the winter for a couple of winters.
