Fairy Tale." Growing up in the Village in School Street was like that for me.
I remember as a child that the art of conversation and story weaving was all around us.
It was celebrated on front stoops and at family gatherings.
There was embellishment, of course, it is said that
the art of storytelling is to leave the story better than
you found it ( Mrs. Humphrey Ward).

In beginning with the story of Fuller School and what it meant to us, we are starting that story.
I miss those days don't you? Help us to revive it here and share it over and over again. Make it a part of our own family legacies.
This is just a part of my genealogical and history files and photographs,

It is a constant struggle to keep it organized, but a labor of love.

Thank you so much to my sister, Kathy, for stepping up to the plate and
sharing the precious photo of Sophia Dupont and her memories of her.
That photo sparked more thoughts for me, seeing those big tall windows again and the dark wood surrounding them. For a child those windows were enormous, the dark wood comforting.
Kathy is going to guest blog again with more photos of Fuller Teachers and
then I will jump back in again.
Can you jot down some memories and get into your old photos and join in?
Just email them to me at spinoart@comcast.net
or if you want to guest blog that would be fine, too.
