Needlework, Linen & More
Gone Fishing, Jane Stafford Frenkel
This river scene was inspired by snatches of a poem by James Whitcomb Riley (title unknown) as remembered by my grandmother and uncle
"Blessings on thee, my little man,
Barefoot boy with cheek of tan...
Up and down ol' Brandywine...
With a dadgum hook an' line...
And a saplin' pole...
I swan
I've had more fun than ever anywhere...
Up n' down ol' Brandywine!"
