My husband and I drove to Modesto today to check out a new store there that will be opening also in Fresno later this year. Modesto is a very nice community, about 90 minutes north of Fresno, in the very middle of California.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22364001.post-26039620849371443702007-01-29T22:39:00.000-05:002007-01-29T22:39:00.000-05:00Thanks for the help on who Omar was.

(quite an intimidating man!) I know he was an extremely hard worker. After he graduated college and returned from the war, he and his wife came back to Indy and worked until he had all of Grandma's bills paid off before relocating to California where his wife was raised. I believe that up until he died he was still going into his office 2-3 days per week (when he wasn't traveling around the world) The interesting thing is, that as an old man, Dale looked almost exactly like his mother did when she was old. In pictures, I actually confused Dale for Ruth once(in front of him which was quite embarrasing!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22364001.post-75843764154051887332007-01-28T18:20:00.000-05:002007-01-28T18:20:00.000-05:00Perhaps - The Stanzas of Omar Khayyam By Omar Khay...Perhaps - The Stanzas of Omar Khayyam By Omar Khayyam, John Leslie Garner, 1897 ?Charley "Apple" Grabowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07193646109965731249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22364001.post-37957414697609764582007-01-28T15:08:00.000-05:002007-01-28T15:08:00.000-05:00Since they read classics, didn't Ruth mean she rec...Since they read classics, didn't Ruth mean she received a copy of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam?<br /><br />Annie at the Transplantable RoseAnnie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.com
