Default I thought I was obsessed with the past.

Here is a you-tube video of one of the most amazing things that
somebody has done in their basement. He has created a street scene
with interiors of a main street of a small town circa.1895-1900. He
has made everything himself, and then filled it with many of his and
his wife's collections of items that interest them, or are of a family
heirloom nature. Take a trip back in time and be amazed.

That's pretty astonishing! Do I detect a note of project envy?

He has too big of a head start on me. But it would be fun to create
your own alternative universe. That part I like.

You are reading book 7, the first one you've read????

How can you start with book SEVEN ???

I started with book one, on a plane, leaving Salt Lake City. I bought
book 2 as soon as I got home, my other half read book one and was
waiting for me to finish book 2, then we were both waiting for book 3
to be finished, and book 4, and book 5, and for book 6 we were at the
book store waiting for midnight to get our book with the other kids,
the same for book 7.....

Now I must say that we are both "older" and we have the books in hard
and soft cover, audio books and the movies, and waiting again for the
two parts on the book 7 movie....

The greatest thing about Harry Potter is that kids are/were reading!!!
BOOKS with more than 100 pages!!!

Can you believe that some people wouldn't let their children read
them???
