It is nice your area library is named after Field. I will have to look for the park House and statue the next time I go to Denver. My area of Brooklyn, where I was born, had a long Dutch history, as they were early settlers in the 1600's. I was familiar with this poem from childhood. My local library in Littleton is named Columbine--no local history there!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8700324863982616242.post-67526805419847741272017-02-08T20:59:33.894-07:002017-02-08T20:59:33.894-07:00What a precious book and a great story.
