The first home she built is in Geneva, Indiana 46740 and she called it the Limberlost because of the 13,000 acre Limberlost Swamp in the area. The second home she built is in Rome City, Indiana 46784. Gene called the second home Limberlost North or Wildflower Woods because of the mature forest and formal gardens around her home. Check out indianamuseum.org for further details on both sites. Also, be sure to become a fan of each site on Facebook!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-24718048656073948322010-03-02T05:46:13.834-07:002010-03-02T05:46:13.834-07:00Aaahhh Jody the lambs are so precious.

It is the one time of year I don't mind driving because I get to see the lambs in the fields.<br />Ann xoxAnnie Bananiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02898832157103683982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-51193281539837810162010-03-01T09:16:56.878-07:002010-03-01T09:16:56.878-07:00The story of the little bird building the nest act...The story of the little bird building the nest actually brought tears to my eyes! Isn't God wonderful to equip little birds with the desire to "decorate" their nests?<br /><br />I love "Girl of the Limberlost" also! I thought the Limberlost was in Florida! Just in my imagination, I guess! I'd love to read this book you mentioned.Lisa Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00567160304529796810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-52280665690713897192010-03-01T07:04:05.666-07:002010-03-01T07:04:05.666-07:00I am glad to hear that many of you have read GSP! ...I am glad to hear that many of you have read GSP! I don't have nearly the variety of birds and butterflies that she had in the Limberlost, but I love what lives here.<br /><br />Pom Pom,<br />Yes, you may print the lamb picture, but I do have a really cute one of a single lamb that you may like too. If you click "Livestock" as a category on my blog, and scroll to some older posts, you will find it. One lil lamb's face. It's cute. Have fun with the four grands!<br /><br />JodyGumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-83120184669732130372010-03-01T06:09:35.254-07:002010-03-01T06:09:35.254-07:00Oh, I'm so happy!

Their faces are so innocent and they are such little survivors. Is it okay with you if I print the photo, Jody? <br />The deer reminds me of Miss Hickory.<br />I woke up to snow, too. I have four grandchildren here today. Let the mess making begin!

I don't envy you the hard work as I grew up on a farm and have some idea what you go through, but birth is a miracle, no matter whether it's lambs, birds or humans. I'll have to look for some of GSP's books, that passage was so perfectly descriptive!Blisshttp://proofofbliss.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-59309888685845183672010-02-28T20:08:57.248-07:002010-02-28T20:08:57.248-07:00Awww, the lambies are sooo cute.

I had no idea where the Limberlost was, so imagine how cool it was when we moved to Indiana and found it right here. If you're ever in NE Indiana, you'll have to stop at GSP's home -- it's on a lake and has been made into a very nice little museum.Thimbleannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03650582809426872051noreply@blogger.com
