prune picker

This is the blog of a prune picker. (Native born Californian) Retired oilfield. I am an old man. I blog a lot about my body and getting old. As I approach death life gets more interesting. More interesting is not good. I still drive. I attend sports, music, and civic events. I am writing my memoirs. I attend swim class three times a week. Some of my blogs might be interesting. A lot of my blogs are silly and trivial. None are very long.

New Orleans Silver of the 19th Century.

Yesterday I attended the meeting of the Northeast Louisiana  Genealogical and Historical Society. Corey Turner Mackie gave a talk on New Orleans Silver in the 19th Century. There was a large attendance and her talk was well received. It was mostly over my head. I do not know much about the history of silverware. I know a lot more after listening to Corey.
